International theologians consider the importance of Christian eschatology - both to the life, authority and hope of the church in the world, and to contemporary life and thought generally. Issues addressed include the understanding of time, the nature of eschatological imagery, the status of apocalyptic and millenarian language, and the political and ecological context of modern eschatology.
David Fergusson is Professor of Systematic Theology, University of Edinburgh. Marcel Sarot is Lecturer in Philosophy of Religion, University of Utrecht.
