A LETTER TO THE CHURCHES
Coming from all the continents of our earth we have met in Bangkok to explore together the promises and demands of Salvation Today. We have received more than we expected ; we have lived it and we have celebrated it in joy and in reality. We went to share with you the experience of these days, which for two convergent reasons has been very rich.
1. This conference, perhaps more than any previous ones, has given most of us a deeper understanding of the word 'ecumenical'. All of us, freely and in confidence of true fellowship, have been able, and have known how, to voice our own concerns, sufferings and hopes. The dialogue was frank, without compromise and challenging for the future, in particular between the poor and the rich within and between nations. We regret that the smallnumber fo Orthodox participants prevented a fuller expression of ecumenicity.
2. We have realized the power of renewal contained in the Gospel when it is shared and read together and when each one and each group can tell what it demands in his or her own situation. To make this so everyone's identity must be respected. Sharing, not only in word but also in prayer, song and art, of all that God has done for us, where we are and as we are, has profoundly enriched us who came from Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe and the Pacific.
From our sharing three results have become clear :
1. Without evading or minimizing theological debates it has become clear that it is around the living person of Jesus Christ that we have met, reliving 'that there is no other name given among men by which we must be saved'. Through the work of the Holy Spirit we have recognized together the power of salvation by his cross as it is manifest in his resurection.
Thus it is to him that we call you to turn. Beyond our own confusions, in the very midst of our most complex problems, God is offering us his salvation which is simple and comprehensive, a wonderful turning upside down of the usual course of events, of our world, expressed in the true conversion of men women to God.
We have also recognized that it is the whole of human reality that he wants to free from all that keeps it in slavery. In accepting the total weakness of the cross, 'all power has been given to him'. Until the end, when he come to demonstrate his final victory, we see him at work every time a man or woman becomes truly free and accepts responsibility as a person-a child of God.
2. Face to face with him whom we have also met as our judge we become aware of the sharpness of his demands and of the gap the exists between what we believe and what we do. Because of the salvation that is in Jesus Christ and which promises to all 'the glorious liverty of the children of God' we commit ourselves more fully in the struggle against everything that oppresses men and women today, not only the sin that is in them but also that is in societies. The scandals of racism, of social injustices, of economic and political oppression, the tragic shame of the Indochina war or the bloody suppression of liberation movements, the dehumanization of teacnological civilization and the threat that it poses for the future of humanity, all these challenge Christians urgently to express in action the salvation of Jesus Christ.
This necessary obedience to the liberating power of Christ, in a coherence of faith and life, must be accompanied by analysis of the situations where it is to be carried out. The abusive misuse of all kinds of power, including the compromises of the churches in this area, must be frankly seen and clearly denounced.
