Pope Benedict XVI on Beatific Vision - Catholic (Revelation 21:4)
"God wipes tears in the beatific vision—seeing Him face to face, dwelling in His presence, the new heaven and earth. Present suffering, offered with Christ, prepares for this glory. Purgatory's tears are last; then eternal joy. The Church moves toward this consummation." — Pope Benedict XVI. Catholic: beatific hope.
