St. Gregory Nazianzen: "Judgment on the living and the dead"

“BELIEVE…that He is to return, glorious and illustrious, to exercise judgment on the living and the dead, not indeed in His former fleshly form nor yet without a body, but with a body more august and more divine such as He alone knew.”

~St. Gregory Nazianzen: Oratio, 45.
