millennial and apocalyptic movements  

Définition

  • Millennial and apocalyptic movements (millennium, from the Latin for “1,000 years” and apocalypse, from the Greek “to reveal”), springing primarily from Christian groups, believe in some form of utopian age on earth where Jesus will rule over humanity prior to God's final judgment and humanity's entry into its eternal state. Drawn from apocalyptic books in the Christian scriptures, including Daniel, Ezekiel, and Revelations, these movements have often developed complex visions of how this golden age will transpire.
