“It is the special function of the Church to speak unceasingly and unfalteringly for this one supreme aspect of the future world, to insist in season and out of season that in it God and the service of God are to the highest good and satisfaction of mankind, that without which all other desirable things will lose their value and abiding significance.” Geerhardus Vos, The Pauline Eschatology, p. 358 (from “The Eschatology of the Psalms”).
