Zusammenfassung:In this article I show how Moltmann's rejection of metaphysics (as a theological starting point) serves as an important controlling feature of his trinitarian doctrine of god. In so doing, I articulate several reasons that have motivated Moltmann's post-metaphysical methodological choices when formulating his trinitarian doctrine of god. After considering such reasons, I then address three distinctive elements of Moltmann's doctrine of god that emerge from his post-metaphysical trinitarian doctrine of god.
