Christians Should Be Troublemakers, Creators

Belief Is Reassuring. People Who Live In The World Of Belief Feel Safe. On The Contrary, Faith Is Forever Placing Us On The Razor's Edge.

For The Word Is Dialectical In Itself And At The Same Time Is Integrated Into The Whole Of Existence. By This I Mean That The Word Is Intended To Be Lived.

One Thing, However, Is Sure: Unless Christians Fulfill Their Prophetic Role, Unless They Become The Advocates And Defenders Of The Truly Poor, Witness To Their Misery, Then, Infallibly, Violence Will Suddenly Break Out. In One Way Or Another 'their Blood Cries To Heaven,' And Violence Will Seem The Only Way Out. It Will Be Too Late To Try To Calm Them And Create Harmony.

We Have To Admit That There Is An Immeasurable Distance Between All That We Read In The Bible And The Practice Of The Church And Of Christians.

It Is Inconceivable That The God Who Gives Himself In His Son To Save Us, Should Have Created Some People Ordained To Evil And Damnation. There Can Only Be One Predestination To Salvation. In And Through Jesus Christ All People Are Predestined To Be Saved. Our Free Choice Is Ruled Out In This Regard. God Wants Free People, Except In Relation To This Last And Definitive Decision. We Are Not Free To Decide And Choose To Be Damned.
