Summary/Abstract: The crisis generated by the novel coronavirus is taken as paradigmatic for the end of the world and becomes a framework for discussing the preparation leading up to the eschaton. Unlike many human crises after which one can draw a line and learn the necessary lessons to perform better next time, at the end of the world, the article postulates, that is not possible. This is why the COVID-19 crisis is a fit context for touching upon re-creating the image of God in human beings.
