Here We Grow
I am very proud of all that the Uniting Church is doing in terms of social justice. Well may Jesus, as Leslie Bryant suggests (November Issue), tell the parable of the “Good Muslim”. We should, of course, show love to and dialogue with Muslims. Ellen Degeneres tells us every day to “be kind to each other”. The gospel of Jesus, however, is much more than this.
Sadly the name of “Christ” was rarely mentioned in the November “Journal”. Rev Orrell Battersby very excitedly described the church planting that is taking place and people are “desperate to see other people coming into a relationship with Christ”. This is exciting and it is obvious that where the supremacy and power of Christ as God is preached and the spiritual, together with the social Gospel, is shared due to the infilling of the Holy Spirit, there is growth.
