ABSTRACT
The perfect storm of COVID-19, international collapse, and climate change is an opportunity for the Church to remember her eschatological call. Through a reading of the Epistle of Barnabas and a retrieval of Heidegger’s reading of Paul, I contrast eschatology with teleology and utopianism and present it as an attitude for our time. I summarise the essence of eschatology in two theses: a first concerning the uni-directionality or eventfulness of eschatological time, and a second concerning the futurity of justice. In the end I locate the heart of eschatology in the active-passivity
