Causing a considerable stir when it was first published in Germany
in 1965, this work represents a comprehensive statement of the
importance for theology of eschatology - and of an eschatological
theology which emphasizes the revolutionary effect of Christian
hope upon the thought, institutions and conditions of life in the
here and now. Moltmann understands Christian faith essentially as
hope for the future of humankind and creation as this has been
promised by the God of the exodus and the resurrection of the
crucified Jesus. God's promise is the compulsory force of history,
awakening hope which keeps human beings unreconciled to present
experience, sets them in contradistinction to prevailing natural
and social powers, and makes the church the source of continual new
impulses towards, in Moltmann's own words, "the realization of
righteousness, freedom and humanity in the light of the promised
future that is to come".
