Abstract
The radical newness of what has been given to the world in the incarnation and sealed in the cross and the resurrection makes the author particularly attentive to the eschatological character of the gospel. Wolfhart Pannenberg's description of the eschatological tension is theoretically more nuanced; Van de Beek's view of the tension is more in terms of a struggle between eschatological existence in Christ and the ongoing location in the world. Pannenberg's instinct is to accentuate the future unity of a reconciled humanity in the kingdom of God, while Van de Beek's is to accentuate the division between those who know Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord and those who do not. From both there is much to learn about the ways of God and God's reconciling and liberating action in the world. Keywords:Bram Van de Beek; Jesus Christ; Radical Eschatology; Wolfhart Pannenberg
