In other words, the awaiting of the parousÃa of Jesus does not dispense
with the work of this world, but on the contrary, brings responsibilities before
the divine Judge regarding our way of acting in this world. Precisely thus, our
responsibility to work in and for this world arises. We will see the same thing
next Sunday in the Gospel of the talents, where the Lord tells us that he has
entrusted talents to everyone and the Judge will ask us to account for them,
saying: Have you given fruits? Therefore, the awaiting of his coming implies a
responsibility toward this world.
The English translation is not up yet on the Vatican web site, but the ever trusty Zenit has the translation.
