Immanentize the eschaton is a non-theological term, in that it came into being discussing politics. I think Buckley and the National Review actually helped popularize it. The eschaton is the end of days (eschatology). Immanentize means to make immanent, to bring into being now. So it’s someone that thinks that they can create God’s heaven on earth in the present or in the future. Utopians. Cults. Democrats. Anyone trying to create heavenly perfection in the here and now. Immanentize the eschaton.
