Early patristic eschatology, G.W.H. Lampe -- III. The eschatology of the reformation, T.F. Torrance -- IV. The modern discussion of eschatology, W.A. Whitehouse. -- "It is suggested to us as a reason for adopting Eschatology as the theme of this conference that the question of eschatology stands at present on the agenda of the Faith and Order Commission. As the Commission is considering the nature of the Christian hope for the world,this will mean that we shall concern ourselves in these discussions, not with the Christian eschatology as a whole, but with the bearings of that eschatology on the life of the world, on the character of the Church's mission and message, and on the meaning and ultimate issues of history. Accepting this very serviceable delimitation ofthe province of our inquiry,I shall leave aside,as of merely secondary interest, what may be called the antiquarian part of the Biblical eschatology, that is to say, the body of external imagery, form and symbol. which are really ineffable" (Manson, p.1) -- "It is not only brotherly love which behoves us to cultivate unity,forthe last coming of Christ ought par- ticularly to rouse us to the work of gathering the Church together,[Calvin] wrote in his Commentary on Hebrews [10.25],and then added: `For to what end did Christ come except to collect us all into one body from that dispersion in which we are now wandering. Therefore, the nearer His coming is,the more we ought to labour that the scattered may be assembled and united together, that there may be one fold and one shepherd.'"
