This article argues that an apocalyptic interpretation of divine revelation provides the theological foundation for discerning the appropriate space for human life to thrive. This apocalyptic theological ethic is contrasted with that of end-time Christians who have supported Donald Trump as God’s chosen one and who joined the storming of the US Capitol on 6 January 2021. It contrasts five features of apocalyptic thinking for both groups: (1) expectation of the end of the world, (2) ethics, (3) Christ, nation, and the first commandment (4) Christians and Jews, and (5) the cross. While the article seeks to give a fair description of the beliefs of end-time Christians, it argues that their beliefs have taken a heretical and dangerous turn.

世界末日伦理、末世基督徒和美国国会大厦的风暴

本文认为,对神圣启示的启示性解释为辨别人类生命繁荣的适当空间提供了神学基础。这种世界末日的神学伦理与支持唐纳德特朗普作为上帝的选民并于 2021 年 1 月 6 日加入美国国会大厦风暴的末世基督徒形成了对比。它对比了两个群体的世界末日思想的五个特征:(1)对世界末日的期待,(2) 伦理,(3) 基督、国家和第一诫 (4) 基督徒和犹太人,以及 (5) 十字架。虽然这篇文章试图公平地描述末世基督徒的信仰,但它认为他们的信仰已经发生了异端和危险的转变。
