Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. the life of hope This is an incredibly accessible presentation of Moltmann's theology of hope related in very personal terms. He takes the reader on a journey from the promise of childhood to the promise of new creation. At times I felt that some sections related and connected to the other material better than others, however, this can be expected when the different chapters grew out of various lectures. By far the most fascinating sections are those dealing with life after death and the community of the living and the dead. In the end his critical reflections on the traditional ideas about the final judgement, hell, and the restoration of all things draws is all together in a breathtaking vision of faith, hope, and love. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
''In my end is my beginning,'' wrote T. S. Eliot, and Jürgen Moltmann's new book is a powerful testament to personal hope in chaotic, even catastrophic times.As Moltmann's award-winning volume The Coming of God laid out the systematic framework of eschatology (the doctrine of the ''last things''), so here he explores the personal meaning of that fundamental affirmation for Christians. Debunking the classic images of Christian apocalyptic scenarios, the final struggle between God and Satan, Christ and the Antichrist—Armageddon—Moltmann instead shows that Christian expectation of the future has nothing to do with these but everything to do with new beginnings and a horizon of hope. Three parts explore three particular beginnings: birth (childhood and youth), rebirth (failures and defeats), and resurrection (death, judgment, afterlife).This brief volume promises to be one of Moltmann's most personal and compelling books.
