Sun 29 B (21.10.12) Mk 10.35-45

The "Son of Man" himself did not come to be served - but to serve.

Looking around today, we discover: it's now a public theory:
           "govern means to serve".
Nearly every Government, but also the Pope and the Bishops they like to be seen as "public service"; the "Common-Good " (das Gemeinwohl aller) is their goal; good service is highly appreciated.
Only later, on the strategical level, if you ask: HOW to achieve the "Common-Good" -
here is still the place of many conflicts. It's the same in the Church: HOW to serve the salvation of the World - there are very different answers. HOW the Christians Churches are contributing to the "Common-Good" of Namibia? The Churches deliver a real Service? - to the people, to the Nation?

MY conviction is:
A) Christians do a real service to the "Common-Good" as far as they represent,
as they live the Mystery of God.
B) As less you know about the Mystery of God as more your faith is a real contribution to the salvation of Namibia.If you know God and his will too well -
HOW do you present the MYSTERY ???  Your knowledge makes you unfit!
