the THEOLOGY of TIME: From Creation to Eternity: A Patristic Vision Time and Age Come

What is time? Why does it exist? And where is history ultimately leading?In The Theology of Time: From Creation to Eternity, Seraphim Scott explores one of the most profound mysteries of the Christian faith through the wisdom of the Holy Fathers of the Orthodox Church. Beginning with creation itself and moving through the Fall, the Incarnation, the life of the Church, and the age to come, this book presents a rich patristic vision of time as God's gift to humanity and the arena of salvation. Drawing upon Scripture and the teachings of saints such as Saint Maximus the Confessor, Saint Gregory of Nyssa, Saint Basil the Great, and many others, the reader is guided on a journey from the first moment of creation to the endless beauty of eternity. Written in a warm and accessible style, The Theology of Time invites readers to see every moment of life not as a meaningless passage toward death, but as a sacred pilgrimage toward communion with God.
