Sun 26 B (30.09.12) Mk 9.38-48

Mk presents today two deep insights into Christian Life.
Jesus is convinced:

A) Anyone who is not against us - is for us.
He made this declaration against the thinking of his apostles to stop a man doing Good Deeds without belonging to the group.
For the Ecumenism of today is the declaration of Jesus more than needed.
Every Christian Denomination should get a voice amidst the world-ecumenical- movement. Nobody is to exclude - and the one who pretend to be the only right way - excludes himself.

B) Anyone who gives a cup of water to the one who belongs to Christ
will not lose his reward.
Note: giving "a cup of water" means: to keep him alive.
          To be a Christian means: to be in service of the participation of all
                                                 with the fulness of Life.
Jesus therefore is convinced:
to keep a Christian Community alive is of great advantage for the whole world.
Don't forget: Christianity stabilises humanity amidst the evolution-process.
But it must be said:
The Christian Community is only an advantage as far as the Christian Values are put in practice.
Your works (hand) and your development (feet) and your sciences (eye)
are of no value if they are not in service of the participation of all with
the fulness of Life.
