Hold on to faith


Hold on to faith
Are we liars?
Catholics.
Bluffing whole world.
Preaching Mukti;
Investing economy of salvation;
Dreaming of Parousia;
Knocking at the kingdom of God;
Peeping in to reign of God,
By the name of resurrected Christ.

I am the way, the truth and the life.
No one can go to the father,
Except through ME.
--are we not exclusive

If you say yes to Pluralism!
What will happen to evangelization?
What will happen to Christ' teachings?
What will happen to uniqueness of Christianity?
Are we not labeling all the religions in the same platforms?

Let me ask you;
Did any body, suffered, died and finally resurrected like Christ?

Not a single fellow
Neither in-Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism,
Nor any subaltern religions.

Can we say--
There is no salvation out side the church?
We accept----
The early Christian community & their feelings;
But now---
After lots of pause and reflections,
We have reconciled quite solemnly
During VATICAN II
NOSTRA AETATE
Which gracefully
Opened the windows;
Broaden the floors;
Shaking the shoulders,
All around.

We are still rooted;
In the tradition and early community of the church.
We celebrate feasts days of saints, martyrs and blessed of the church.
Preaching Good news till the end of the earth
Our salvation Is
In and through Jesus Christ
That is our faith.
