Abstract
This essay deals with the fundamental problem in which the doctrine of providence, that is God's acting in nature, history and individual life, is still stuck: the dilemma of theism or deism, God's superiority or powerlessness. I introduce an eschatological perspective to find alternative approaches to power. I name six concrete modes of action, four of them drawn from different authors and theories such as Romano Guardini, Open Theism and Christian Link. Two more are developed out of the latter.
