Identitas Kristen dalam Realitas Hidup Berbelaskasihan: Memaknai Kisah Orang Samaria yang Murah Hati
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2015, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
The message of Luke 10: 25-37 is very clear that the Christian life is not about appearances (a life that develops religiosity without spirituality). The identity of the Christian life is founded on the basis of mercy, thus the attitude of compassion accompanied by sincerity and willingness is one of its established pillars. This creation of a shared life which increasingly touches the depths of a spiritual life which restores, revives, and saves is the identity of a Christian life. Christianity faces various challenges that not only operate at the level of concepts, but also at the level of proclaimed attitudes which create life changes. This emphasizes that the maturity of this concept about the Christian life itself means an empowering life that is in line with the maturity of this concept. The mercy of the Samaritan which is visible in this text is due to the fullness of mercy in his heart, or the mercy that flows out from his heart. It is very oxymoronic if someone emphasizes that they are spiritual, but their attitudes are far from the nature and character of the spiritual life they claim to have.
