"In Christian circles, realized eschatology is the doctrine through which theologians argue that the ultimate matters in life-death, hell, judgment, and the grace among them- have been manifest, have been realized, within time and not in a transcendent space beyond time. In biblical terms, there are two conceptions of time, chronos and kairos. Chronos is chronological time that extends forward and backward in linear fashion (aka horizontal dualism). Kairos is about the fullness of time- the resplendent, resonant sense of time replete with all the significations of eternity. Kairos is about time being pregnant. "
