About this Quote

This quote by Origen speaks to the Church's teaching that the world was created at a specific point in time and will be destroyed due to its wickedness. This concept is rooted in the Christian belief that God is the developer of the world and all that is in it. He is also the one who will ultimately judge the world and its occupants. Origen's quote suggests that the world is limited and will pertain to an end when God chooses it is time. This idea is supported by the Bible, which mentions that God will evaluate the world and its inhabitants according to their deeds.

This quote by Origen functions as a tip to all Christians to live a life that is pleasing to God and to be prepared for the day of judgement.
