I think I'l have to pick up the book cause (though he [Wright] did not get to explain himself) Stephen's question of the eschatological Kingdom is related to whether it will be catastrophic--discontinuous with the historical process or manifested within it.

I think its both from within and from without, meaning that we await the second advent to make everything new--coming from without. However, it is, after-all the FULFILLMENT OF CREATION and not some sort of gnosticism in which there is a non-corporeal soul detached from God's world which means that it will be continous with the historical process. So the division between this life and the life to come should not be too sharp. Its only because of this slight gnosticism that one is able to see that the fulfillment of creation is also, creation REGAINED.
