Christianity is the largest religious group in the world with about 2.6 billion adherents globally. Christianity is, therefore, expected to influence the character of most people in the world. But recent happenings prove otherwise. This research sought to examine how Christian eschatology might impact the public sphere from a Ghanaian socio-religious perspective. The researchers used qualitative research that employs the conceptual analysis approach. During the research, the researchers found out that scanty information exists in academia when it comes to eschatology in Africa. Another finding is a wake up calls on the church to review its eschatological position in the light of sound biblical interpretation. As eschatology influences the theological position of almost all doctrines and practices of the church, it is crucial for the church to revisit its eschatological doctrines and examine its biblical foundations. The research provided lessons and guiding principles for the Ghanaian Christian community.
