Life affirming ecumenism leads to koinonia for peace and justice

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Life affirming ecumenism compels all people of faith to embrace koinonia, which simply means fellowship, as a way of expressing relations among humankind as initiated and sanctioned by God, the creator of the universal household. The desired fellowship that should exist between people of faith should undoubtedly lead to actions that will nourish peace and entrench a culture of peaceful coexistence among people anchored on inclusive justice for all regardless of religious persuasion, social status and political affiliation of the human person. Anything short of the foregoing expectation amounts to cosmetic or fake peace and most certainly ridicules the very essence of ecumenical relations and interactions. True ecumenical fellowship should lead to working intentionally for the cause of genuine peace that is soiled and rooted by authentic justice.
