The culmination of history, like its inception, sets forth the glory of God in Christ, which is magnified through the consummation on the Last Day.

"And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof" (Rev. 21:22-23).
