ABSTRACT The relationship between science and theology is complementary, but some dissonance remains. Cosmology claims that the universe is either moving toward destruction or infinite expansion. However, eschatology claims the universe is destined for renewal. Recent scholarship attempts to resolve this dissonance by basing resolution in the bodily resurrection of Christ, but little work has been done in other areas of theology to resolve the dissonance. Pneumatology offers a possible resolution to the cosmological-eschatological dissonance. By examining the work of the Holy Spirit in creation compared to human redemption, we can provide one possible resolution to the cosmological-eschatological dissonance.
