Money is good, but selfish persons have made it bad and sinful. Power is good, but abuse by humans has made it something to fear. All has been created by God, but humans have subjected it to sin. And so Christ’s ascension proclaims that the whole creation will also be redeemed in him, because he will give the meaning of all that God has created, and at the end of time (in this will consist the final judgment) he will place at God’s feet the great adjudication of good and evil. Evil will be eliminated definitively and good will be taken up in the eternal glorification of Christ.

The Lord’s ascension also marks the glorification of the universe.
