The Second Coming of Christ

The Second Coming of Christ: Ancient Doctrine and Present Times takes up a question the Church has professed since the Creed: why must Christ come again, and what does it mean for us now?

Theologian Françoise Breynaert, who holds a doctorate from the Pontifical Marianum in Rome, sets out the Church's teaching on Christ's return and brings it to bear on present concerns, contrasting Christian hope with the ideologies that promise to save the world through politics, technology, or science alone.
