4. Creation: its Beginning and End

by Georges Florovsky, Vladimir Djambov (Translator)

Christian hope is wholly addressed to the Second Coming. This does not mean harshly-indifferent to the worldly bustle and to the creature, not voluntarily submitted to the bustle of the yet and "collectively groaning and tormented to this day ..." Does not mean inactive patience for the world. But not the princes — at least the “princes of the Church” —and not the sons of men, the Christian hope rests. The healing effect of the authoritarian and organizational combination of dissenters, the possibility of a comprehensive exit from slavery to corruption, the effective significance of the social ideal, that is unconditional and unambiguous, all-perfect form of organization of inter-human relations, which would automatically carry out the infection and the maximum cohesion of the whole, and the completeness of individual satisfaction - (besides for each and every one ) - the Christian does not believe and cannot believe in all these mirages of tired and decadent imagination.
