The Final Judgment is known as the Last Judgment in the Catholic Church. The Last Judgment is covered in paragraphs 1038-1041 in the Catechism. The resurrection of all the dead will precede the Last Judgment and Christ will come "in His glory, and all the angels with Him . . Before Him will be gathered all the nations, and He will separate them one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, and He will place the sheep at His right hand, but the goats at the left . . . And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life." (Matthew 25:31, 32, 46) Only the Father knows the day and the hour; only He determines the moment of its coming. Then through His Son Jesus Christ He will pronounce the final word on all history. We shall know the ultimate meaning of the whole work of creation and of the entire economy of salvation and understand the marvellous ways by which His Providence led everything towards its final end. The Last Judgment will reveal that God's justice triumphs over all the injustices committed by His creatures and that God's love is stronger than death. (Cf. Song 8:6). . .

1041 The message of the Last Judgment calls men to conversion while God is still giving them "the acceptable time, . . . the day of salvation." (2 Cor 6:2) It inspires a holy fear of God and commits them to the justice of the Kingdom of God. It proclaims the "blessed hope" of the Lord's return, when He will come "to be glorified in His saints, and to be marvelled at in all who have believe[d]." (Lumen Gentium 48; cf. Acts3:21; Eph 1:10; Col 1:20; 2 Pet 3:10-13)
