“The crucified but risen Jesus appears in the believing, assembled community of the church. That this sense of the risen, living Jesus has faded in many [churches] can be basically blamed on the fact that our churches are insufficiently 'communities' of God. Where the church of Jesus Christ lives, and lives a liberating life in the footsteps of Jesus, the resurrection faith undergoes no crisis. On the other hand, it is better not to believe in God than to believe in a God who minimizes human beings, holds them under and oppresses them, with a view to a better world to come.” WorldBelieveHumansFactsHandsJesusChristCommunityChurchHuman BeingsViewsJesus ChristCrisisBelieve In GodResurrectionLiberatingFootstepsRisenFaded Author:Edward Schillebeeckx
