The article explores the importance of hope in the resurrection and eternal life

First source report

Catholic Intelligence1 min read

Élie Collin writes that contemporary Christian mentality appears less focused on future life than in previous centuries due to historical and intellectual reasons. The author suggests that the meaning of faith weakens when believers lose sight of the eternal beatitude promised by God.

The text references Saint Paul to argue that the Christian life requires a focus on the glorious end to which it leads. Collin notes that if hope in Christ is placed only in this life, the faith becomes vain.
