| Summary: | From the perspective of a church historian this doctoral thesis investigates the early-modern ideas of various denominations about the 'Last Judgment'. The analysis lists the various end-time expectations in confessions of faith (of churches and individuals) which address the Christian hope in face of the Last Judgment. The trans- and interdenominational direction of the study reveals many beneficial avenues, but also theological limitations for interdenominational dialogue in the present. The juxtaposition of confessional texts, exegetical interpretations and theological treatises of the past elucidates both the diversity and the similarity of theological views which may enrich ecumenical conversations in the present as well. In this respect the investigation can be warmly recommended. (English) |
