Description
Summary:"God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. So we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We beseech you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God", wrote St Paul to the Corinthian community (II Cor. 2:19-20). Encouraged and inspired by this assurance given by the great Apostle and Theologian of the early Church, we the members of the Indian Theological Association met at St Pius X College, Goregaon, Bombay, from Oct. 22-24, 1982to analyse and discuss the various aspects and dimensions of reconciliation in the Indian context, especially because "Reconciliation and penance in the mission of the Church", has been proposed as the theme for the forthcoming Synod of Bishops in Rome, in 1983. We discussed this theme from the socio economic and inter-religious perspectives as well as from the biblical, theological and pastoral points of view.
