Summary/Abstract: Protestant reformed theology cultivates unambiguous theology of time. However, it concerns the contemporary – the twentieth century reformed theology as such a reflection can not be found in the writings of the reformed Protestant classics (John Calvin, Huldrych Zwingli). Protestant theological thought approaches human wisdom, and thus philosophy, with reserve and skepticism, suspecting it of contamination by the effects of original sin. Reformed Protestants rely on God’s revelation in Jesus Christ and on the Word of God to find data on the concept of time. It must be admitted that Jürgen Moltman, the reformed German theologian, is the most sympathetic for the philosophical concepts. One can find many references to philosophy in his reflection on time.
