1Jn 3, 3 Who has this hope makes himself pure

(1Jn 3, 3) Who has this hope makes himself pure
[3] Everyone who has this hope based on him makes himself pure, as he is pure.

(CCC 2771) In the Eucharist, the Lord's Prayer also reveals the eschatological character of its petitions. It is the proper prayer of "the end-time," the time of salvation that began with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit and will be fulfilled with the Lord's return. The petitions addressed to our Father, as distinct from the prayers of the old covenant, rely on the mystery of salvation already accomplished, once for all, in Christ crucified and risen. (CCC 2772) From this unshakeable faith springs forth the hope that sustains each of the seven petitions, which express the groanings of the present age, this time of patience and expectation during which "it does not yet appear what we shall be" (1 Jn 3:2; cf. Col 3:4). The Eucharist and the Lord's Prayer look eagerly for the Lord's return, "until he comes" (1 Cor 11:26).
