Liberation theology was developed in Latin America in the second half of the 20thcentury. It referred to recommendations of the Second Vatican Council to analyze signs ofthe times and to enter into more constructive dialogue on social problems. Liberationtheology concentrates not only on the problem of a man’s liberation that is understood as theact of saving a man from sin and from all that leads to the state of being far from God. It alsotouches upon the problem of liberation in the social and political aspect. It’s a criticalreflection and it decides about the kind of contrast between faith we adopt and the way wepractice it in our life. According to the experts of liberation theology, analyzing es-chatological issues, it should be accepted that only considering historical events it is possiblefor us to be open to the future. We can’t say that eschatology is important in the future as itfinds its fulfillment in the present – in the struggle for „a better tomorrow”. Eschatology inthe context of liberation theology concentrates on the problem of God’s promises included inthe Scriptures. Historical fulfillment of those promises in the present – as long as they aredirected to what is going to happen – is just as typical of liberation theology as looking intothe future with confidence and being entirely open to it. The act of directing our attention tothe future adds a whole new meaning to the present and motivates to build a new community.Furthermore, according to liberation theologians, human history is an opening to the future.It’s also a task, a political undertaking that orients a man to the definitive encounter with theLord. A life in terms of ‘a better tomorrow’ requires a critical analysis of the present and thechange of the current social and political order which impedes the proper development ofa man and hinders Kingdom of God from being build. Liberation theology equates the earthlydimension with the eschatological one. Finally, it considers eschatological truths in thecontext of historical ‘praxis’ which aims at improving the social and political order.
