To
heed Jesus’ message concerning earthly
riches is to live it out in practical action that affirms unconditional, sacrificial
love, relationship and community. This is perhaps the reason why our age almost
unanimously admires revolutionaries like Mother Theresa, Mahatma Gandhi and
Albert Schweitzer. They demonstrate that “it is not how a man ranks on the
achievement scale of the divine commandments or in the acquisition of wealth
that is the essential question, but the intensity of his commitment to the
work of preparing for the Kingdom of God [Mk 10:17-31]” (H.C.KEE, et al., 1973). To overcome poverty, Christ assumed
poverty, and called His disciples to practice the same ascesis. For “what is not
assumed, cannot be healed,” wrote St Athanasius. This work can best be accomplished in the
Church’s “sacrificial self-transcendence and struggle to
|
attain
communion. It provides a basis for social justice that is genuine and not
merely rationalistic; it liberates work from slavery to need, transforming it
into a personal relationship and it brings out each human being’s creative
distinctiveness” (C.YANNARAS,
1984). “Our
greatest and only resource is the miracle of human creativity in a relation
of openness to the divine,” writes George Gilder (1981), who concludes with
the following poem, ascribed to Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971): “Nothing worth
doing is completed / in one lifetime. / Therefore we must be saved by hope. /
Nothing true or beautiful makes / complete sense / in any context of history.
/ Therefore we must be saved by faith. / Nothing we do, no matter how
virtuous, / can be accomplished alone. / Therefore, we are saved by love.”
A.M. IOANNIDES (2001)
