The Second Coming is an awakening to our own state of Christ Consciousness. We become the place where it happens, or not.
"Then it was as if I suddenly saw the secret beauty of their hearts, the depth of their hearts, where neither sin nor desire nor self-knowledge can reach, the core of their reality, the person that each one of us is in the eyes of the Divine. If only they could truly see themselves as they truly are. If only then could they see each other that way all the time. There would be no more war, no more hatred, no more cruelty, no more greed, and I suppose that the big problem is we would all fall down and worship each other." -- Thomas Merton
