description Although the theme of eschatology is not at the forefront of baptismal theology, it plays an important role in it. It is referred to in both the catechumenal rites and during the baptism ceremony. This theme is particularly prevalent in the catechetical teachings of Theodore of Mospuestia (350–428).
