I found you by googling the phrase 'Lady Poverty.' I have observed a vow of poverty since 1996, and have a perspective slightly different from Murry Bodo (you quoted from him in a blog entry made in July 2008). Anyway.

]]> Comment on Recovering Reconciliation as the Mission of God by david clark http://uncertaindogma.wordpress.com/2008/12/18/recovering-reconciliation-as-the-mission-of-god/#comment-285 david clark Fri, 19 Dec 2008 18:53:15 +0000 http://uncertaindogma.wordpress.com/?p=362#comment-285 Tim, you bring up an important point in saying that the cross was certainly an even and achievement God's reconciliation with man. In God's "time" we could certainly say that in the cross, once and for all reconciliation was made. But here is the amazing thing: God has given us the ministry of reconciliation as being the ambassadors of Christ. The paradox is that yes reconciliation is a completed process in the cross, but we are given the opportunity to participate in the process and journey of reconciliation. The other part, and this is what the authors were emphasizing, is that the process of reconciliation involves the healing of our memories and forgiveness. And these two things are never a one time event. They may have their beginnings in an event, but it always a long hard journey. Thank you for your comments.

That's why Paul would say that we have been given the word of reconciliation. I believe that reconciliation must be a declaration because, while it is an achieved reality because of the work on the cross, it is not yet a conscious reality that is operative in us. I think both can be true and not contradict each other. Tim,
