Catholic News Agency has a story on Pope Francis's April 24 general audience.

Christians should not be frightened of the final judgment but should let it affect how they live, Pope Francis told the 100,000 pilgrims who filled St. Peter's Square.

"Human history begins with the creation of man and woman in the image and likeness of God and concludes with the final judgment of Christ. We often forget these two poles of history, and above, all faith in the return of Christ and the final judgment is sometimes not so clear and strong in the hearts of Christians," Pope Francis said April 24.
