Winner of Grawemeyer Award In this remarkable and timely work - in
many ways the culmination of his systematic theology -
world-renowned theologian Jurgen Moltmann stands Christian
eschatology on its head. Moltmann rejects the traditional approach,
which focuses on the End, an apocalyptic finale, as a kind of
Christian search for the final solution. He centers instead on hope
and God's promise of new creation for all things. Christian
eschatology, he says, is the remembered hope of the raising of the
crucified Christ, so it talks about beginning afresh in the deadly
end. Yet Moltmann's novel framework, deeply informed by Jewish and
messianic thought, also fosters rich and creative insights into the
perennially nettling questions of eschatology: Are there eternal
life and personal identity after death? How is one to think of
heaven, hell, and purgatory? What are the historical and
cosmological dimensions of Christian hope? What are its social and
political implications. In a heartbreakingly fragile and fragment
world, Moltmann's comprehensive eschatology surveys the Christian
vista, bravely envisioning our horizons of expectation for
personal, social, even cosmic transformation in God.
