Let us be todays Christians. Let us not take fright at the boldness of todays church. With Christs light let us illuminate even the most hideous caverns of the human person: torture, jail, plunder, want, chronic illness. The oppressed must be saved, not with a revolutionary salvation, in mere human fashion, but with the holy revolution of the Son of Man, who dies on the cross to cleanse Gods image, which is soiled in todays humanity, a humanity so enslaved, so selfish, so sinful.
