Sergey Anatolyevitch Torop (Russian: Серге́й Анато́льевич То́роп, Sergej Anatolʹevič Torop; born 14 January 1961 in Krasnodar, Russian SFSR), known by his followers as Vissarion (Russian: Виссарио́н, IPA: [vʲɪsərʲɪˈon], "He who gives new life"), is a Russian mystic and spiritual leader.
Torop claims that on 18 August 1990, when he was 29, he had a revelation that he was the reincarnation of Christ. He first spoke publicly about his claim in Minusinsk on 18 August 1991. He founded the "Church of the Last Testament" (Церковь Последнего Завета Tserkov Poslednego Zaveta), also known as the "Community of Unified Faith", with its head church located in the Siberian Taiga in the Minusinsk Depression east of Abakan, in the small settlement of Petropavlovka. As Vissarion, he teaches reincarnation, veganism, and apocalypse. He has around 4,000 followers (called Vissarionites) living in the settlement and a further 6,000 followers around the world.[1]
Sergey Anatolyevitch Torop was born in Krasnodar to Anatoly Torop and Nadezhda (née Malashenko); after service in the Soviet Army, he settled in Minusinsk. He worked as a patrol officer before losing his job in 1989.[2][3] He claims that in 1990 he was "reborn" as Vissarion, a returned Christ. In his system this does not make him God, but instead the word of God. His religion combines elements of the Russian Orthodox Church with Buddhism, apocalypticism, collectivism, and ecological values. Torop founded the Church of the Last Testament in Krasnoyarsk, Siberia in 1991 just before the fall of the USSR.[4] He predicted the imminent end of the world with only his followers being saved.[5]
His followers observe strict regulations, including abstaining from meat,[6] smoking, drinking alcohol and the use of money.[7][8] The aim of the group is to unite all religions on Earth.[9] He replaced Christmas with a feast day on his birthday (14 January) and claimed to possess an ability to heal cancer and AIDS with a touch from his hand.[5]
Tiberkul, the settlement in the Taiga, was established in 1994 on a territory of 2.5 square kilometres (620 acres), and expanded to several nearby villages, such as those of Petropavlovka and Cheremshanka, at ca. 56°37′N 96°12′E. It has some four thousand inhabitants, largely living autochthonously and following ecological principles. The central settlement, also called The Town and The Mountain, has a three-tiered structure: the Town itself (Abode of Dawn), the Heavenly Abode, and the Temple Peak.
Since 1992, biographer Vadim Redkin has published an annual volume detailing Vissarion's activities. Vissarion has attracted followers from Germany's esoteric subculture, and seven volumes of Vadim's account have been translated into German.[10]
In May 2012, the Vice YouTube channel released "Cult Leader Thinks He's Jesus (Documentary Exclusive)", containing a report by Rocco Castoro, a reporter for Vice in Petropavlovka, and his interview with Vissarion.[11] The video depicts the settlement and the people as a very nice place with good people, but the ideas of the group as very cultish. This was the first time Vissarion had granted an interview in three years.
On 22 September 2020, Russian authorities arrested Vissarion on charges of running an illegal religious organisation, possible physical harm to others, and extortion. He was apprehended by the FSB and Russian police, and taken to Novosibirsk central district court, along with two aides, Vadim Redkin and Vladimir Vedernikov.[4][12]
Torop rejected his first wife and married a nineteen-year-old who had lived with him since she was a girl of seven. He has six children from the two marriages.[13]
Vissarion has a younger half-sister, Irina. Though he has a biological mother named Nadyezhda, Vissarion considers Mary, mother of Jesus, as his own mother.[14]

特洛普併於1991年成立「最後遺訓教會」聲稱耶穌轉世，1995年在西伯利亞成立定居據點「太陽之城」，有數百名虔誠教徒追隨他入住。（路透）
〔即時新聞／綜合報導〕自稱耶穌轉世、現年59歲的邪教領袖特洛普（Sergei Torop）與2名副手22日遭俄羅斯警方在西伯利亞一處偏僻小鎮逮捕，警方指控該教涉組織非法宗教、勒索支持者財務、對教徒身體健康造成傷害等罪嫌。其實，特洛普只是一名建築工人的兒子，曾當過交通警察。
綜合外媒報導，逮捕行動當日清晨，4架直升機、數十輛武裝卡車與載滿軍警人員的巴士出現在克拉斯諾亞爾斯克郊區（Krasnoyarsk region）一處村莊，接著攻堅「最後遺訓教會」據點。特洛普在睡夢中被驚醒，隨後遭到逮捕，想營救他的手下統統被武裝部隊阻擋在外，不久後，特洛普及2名副手被押上直升機帶走。
據報導，特洛普過去是名交通警察，在1989東歐巨變丟掉工作，1990年他自稱「覺醒」，隨著1991年蘇聯垮台，官方70年無神論的主張終結，他在莫斯科街上對路人傳教，吸引了一群熱切的教徒，包括現在他首席牧師謝瓦科夫（Sergei Chevalkov）一位蘇聯核導彈的負責人之一。
特洛普併於1991年成立「最後遺訓教會（Church Of The Last Testamen）」聲稱是上帝的兒子轉世，1995年在西伯利亞成立定居據點「太陽之城」，有數百名虔誠教徒追隨他入住。報導指出，特洛普蓄髮蓄鬍，通常穿著飄逸長袍現身，令人想到耶穌，目前吸引了約5000名俄羅斯教徒，遍布全球的追隨者共約5萬人。
據了解，特洛普的追隨者不得抽菸、喝酒、使用貨幣交易，也不能吃肉、喝咖啡、食用糖、麵包、茶、小麥製品。不過，當他的追隨者在小屋內忍耐飢寒時，特洛普卻很少出現在其中；取而代之的是，他住在山頂的三層高木屋中，據說木屋有溫暖的毛毯，高級音響設備與液晶電視。
不過，這樣的生活持續進行時，一名女信徒身體承受不住而倒下昏迷，更有消息指出，一些追隨者出現缺乏醫療服務、更有人因壓力過大輕生，當局不得不採取行動。特洛普目前被控以「心理暴力」剝削5000名俄羅斯追隨者，並對其健康造成嚴重傷害。如果被定罪，特洛普將面臨長達12年監禁。
