Abstract

This article considers the relationship between eschatology and theological method. It does so in dialogue with Daniel W. Hardy's essay ‘Creation and eschatology’ and 1 Corinthians 13.12. The article identifies four themes regarding theological method in relation to the verse and Hardy's writings. The first two of these concern the dialectic of patience and impatience as innate to the theological task. The third theme considers whether this dialectic is surpassed through theological reflection on the biblical image of covenant. The fourth discusses the context of worship and the blinding light of mystery for theological reflection, and the effect of these on the task of theology.
