Christ's love, and our responsibility, for the world (Dietrich Bonhoeffer)

DateThursday, July 3, 2008 at 3:36PM

Another great quote from Sojourners!


This love of God for the world does not withdraw from a reality into noble souls detached from the world, but experiences and suffers the reality of the world in the harshest possible fashion. The world takes out its rage on the body of Jesus Christ. But he, tormented, forgives the world its sins. Thus does reconciliation come about.

- Dietrich Bonhoeffer Meditations on the Cross
