What the Catholic Church teaches (and doesn't teach) about the end of the world. 11 insights the Church offers us about the second coming of Christ. 13 guidelines for discerning the validity of claims to private revelation. Five ways Catholic theologians interpret the Book of Revelation. What the Church teaches about the Antichrist.
