I just can’t imagine a scenario where we get to heaven and Jesus says…
“You loved too much.”
“You showed mercy too often.”
“You welcomed too many people into the Church.”
“You spent too much time pursuing justice on behalf of the poor, marginalized and oppressed.”
evangelicals: “jesus came to die for your sins”
jesus: “i came to proclaim good news to the poor, proclaim freedom for the prisoners, recover the sight for the blind, set the oppressed free, and proclaim the year of jubilee”
@kkdumez They need to read Walter Wink and how he unpacked the 'turn the other cheek' to what it means in that context... and for us; then the 'rebellious' nature of Jesus and his message will get even scarier!!
