This book integrates contemporary realities and issues in the area of Eschatology with Biblical and theological insights. The book also challenges the readers to do away with all escapist and other worldly notions and to be with God as concrete historical human beings with ultimate concerns. There is a freshness of approach and creativity in the book that comes from author’s ardent endeavour to combine academic insights and pastoral experiences. Contents Foreword Acknowledgements 1.
