Summary/Abstract: The basic theme of this article is the relationship between salvation and history in the theology of J.B. Metz. Based on the Platon’s model of thinking, Christianity mostly refused this world, history, and society. Metz does not accept any demonisation of the corporality and he seeks to harmonize the divine with the human, building his entire theology on the fact of the incarnation.
