(Jude, vv. 17-19) Remember the words spoken beforehand
[17] But you, beloved, remember the words spoken beforehand by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ, [18] for they told you, "In (the) last time there will be scoffers who will live according to their own godless desires." [19] These are the ones who cause divisions; they live on the natural plane, devoid of the Spirit.

(CCC 1040) The Last Judgment will come when Christ returns in glory. Only the Father knows the day and the hour; only he determines the moment of its coming. Then through his Son Jesus Christ he will pronounce the final word on all history. We shall know the ultimate meaning of the whole work of creation and of the entire economy of salvation and understand the marvellous ways by which his Providence led everything towards its final end. The Last Judgment will reveal that God's justice triumphs over all the injustices committed by his creatures and that God's love is stronger than death (Cf. Song 8:6).
