to the mind of Jesus. The Assumption of Mary is an anticipation of the future resurrection. Future Signs that proceed the second coming The second coming is suspended until Jesus is recognized by "all of Israel," and until the church undergoes a final test by the antichrist. Sign of the antichrist The antichrist will be the supreme pseudo-messianism that claims to solve everyone's problems at the cost of apostasy. It will cause the final persecution of the church. The antichrist is foreshadowed throughout history by secular messianisms and millenarianism. Second coming of Jesus The second coming of Jesus will happen on the last day. It will bring about the resurrection and judgment of mankind. The judgment of mankind will reveal each person's good and evil deeds and will reveal the ultimate meaning of history and creation, how God led everything to its goal, and how God's justice surpasses every injustice and God's love surpasses death. Unofficial interpretation Past Calculation of creation and Christmas The Anno Mundi is sometimes used by Catholics to determine the date of Christmas. Deicide Jewish deicide is not accepted by the church. The church teaches that not Jews, but all sinners, are "the authors and the ministers" of Jesus' passion and death. Present Chastisement Certain alleged private revelations, such as Our Lady of Akita and Our Lady of Medjugorje, claim mankind is undergoing a chastisement for its sins. Six Ages of the World Augustine of Hippo believed the world is divided into six ages, with the fifth age being the contemporary age and the sixth age beginning at the second coming. Future Signs that will proceed the second coming According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, Judgment Day will be proceeded by the return of Elijah and Enoch, a number of natural disasters, and a supernatural fire that will renew creation. Identity of the antichrist Some church fathers, such as Irenaeus and Hippolytus, taught that the Antichrist will be a Jew from the tribe of Dan. Thomas Ice argues that the Antichrist will be a gentile. See also List of private revelations approved by the Catholic Church Criticism of the Catholic Church References Western culture
