In Mk 1.21- 28 / 28 - 39 it looks like Jesus AS THE FOUNDER OF CHRISTIANITY
is on a show-tour. (4. + 5. Sun B):
Capernaum ("the whole town came"); the Galilean-countryside; Syngogue; the
neighbouring-country-towns...)
His REPUTATION spread everywhere... / HE is getting famous... / HE is special... ""EVERYBODY IS LOOKING FOR YOU"
The reason for his reputation is a) not his family / blood b) not because of a title
but because of HIS DEEDS
A) He has a very impressive teaching: "Here is a teaching, that is new"
B) He is casting out devils, unclean spirits:
"He gives them orders and they obey him"
C) He is healing all over "He helped her up"
D) He prayed "at a lonely place"
These four activities gives HIM a great REPUTATION !!! as Mark see it...
WHAT is the REPUTATION of the Christianity of today in NAMIBIA ????
A) teaching ? We have famous Catholic / Christian Schools ...
B) casting out ????
C) healing ? We have Hospitals ...
D) praying ? We have a lot of Sunday-Services...
Once the Christian Churches have been famous for the PRAYER for Independence.
Today ???? today: the Churches are casting out the devils of corruption ?
the Churches are alleviating the poverty ?
the Churches bring which richnesses ?
the Churches offer real solutions for NAMIBIAN's problems ?
We are like the moon - taking the light from the Sun and wipe out the stars.
