Spong is a well-known theologian who has made and is still making valuable contribution to Christian theology and boldly expresses views on controversial issues related to faith praxis.

21 DARING TO BE DISCIPLES OF JESUS is the theme of the forthcoming 140 th Diocesan Convention of the Episcopal Diocese of Newark, New Jersey in USA. The Diocese of Newark is known as one of the liberal dioceses of the Episcopal Church. One of its former Bishops, John S. Spong is a well-known theologian who has made and is still making valuable contribution to Christian theology and boldly expresses views on controversial issues related to faith praxis. He is an extra ordinary and out spoken person in the prophetic tradition. I feel that the theme chosen by the Diocese is very appropriate for the universal Church.While the traditional teaching of the Church has always been that Jesus Christ as wholly divine and wholly human, there have been challenges to this concept from very early times; for example, Docetism.The Church dealt with these by terming such challenges as heresies. But today I find that generally speaking, the humanity of Jesus is underplayed or compromised to make Jesus wholly divine. I have a friend, a bishop, who always prays O God Almighty, Jesus Christ instead of ending the prayer in Jesus name. Last Sunday I attended a Praise and Prayer,the popular worship pattern these days where all the songs were prayers to Jesus, ignoring the fact that Jesus taught his disciples to make their prayers to the Father. Jesus never claimed for himself equal status with the Father. I wonder whether this is a common practice or exceptional in certain circles. I am afraid that if we forget the humanity of Jesus, it will have serious implications for our attitude and relations to other faith traditions. We may also conclude that we will never be able to follow his teachings and examples as we are just humans while he is God.It seems to be the case as more and more people seek from him blessings in the form of miracles to make their life here and now happy and safe in the hereafter. I am afraid Jesus is being placed in the pantheon, keeping him away from our daily life situationsand expecting him to do what we want him to do without meddling in Random thoughts -6 DARING TO BE DISCIPLES OF JESUS Rt. Rev. Dr. A. George Ninan our day to day affairs. The popular TV evangelists and the itinerant preachers who are blind to the everyday issues and challenges people face, the bishops and clergy of the churches whose interests are more in material growth than in the mission of God in the world, all have one thing in common and that is to act as peddlers of God s Blessings. In the name of being channels of God s blessings, they also gather wealth, power and dominance for themselves, all the while preaching that Christians are pilgrims inthis world and that their eyes should be set on life on the other side.superficial god-talk and prosperity oriented promises that belittle life in the present for all the others but, at the same time, amassing material wealth for themselves at the expenses of the ongoing spiritual groaning of the whole creation for liberation, seem to be the norm of the ecclesiastical leaders today. It is in this milieu that we have to be Daring to be Disciples of JESUS, the Word which became flesh and dwelt among us in this world, which he and his Father loved so much and still loves and will never forsake. The Jesus of Nazareth, the Zealot, who stood up to political oppressors, the prophet who challenged the hypocrisy of the religious establishment, the guru who taught his disciples not only by words but also by his very life examples, the rabbi who interpreted the Law and the Prophets in the context of his days, the son who showed us a vision of the living and loving fatherhood of God as against a faraway fierce God waiting to catch you when you fail as if he enjoyed punishing his creation. As a prophet,he proclaimed the vision of a new tomorrow, based on love, Justice and Peace here in this world. He challenged his disciples to renew themselves with the values of the Kingdom he preached, love their enemies and do to others what they would like others to do to them. He shared his hope inthe world that is moving forward, upholding the new culture he initiated. He showed the way to include all his creation in this movement rather than hold on legalistically to the past thus refusing to see the Spirit who is at work, unfolding new historical events and insights. He asked his followers to preach the good newsthat God is in the midst of his people and challenged them to make disciples (of Jesus) here and now in the whole world. I suppose the word mission is no more popular in the Church today. If at all it is used, it is to refer to the unevangelized parts of the world and the self - 21

22 22 I am afraid that if we forget the humanity of Jesus, it will have serious implications for our attitude and relations to other faith traditions. We may also conclude that we will never be able to follow his teachings and examples as we are just humans while he is God. righteous Christians raise money to send surrogate missionaries to such places while they seek for themselves and their loved onesexclusive blessings in terms of prosperity and comfort in this world which, we all know, is not our permanent abode. Since the focus is on the divinity of Jesus, mission is confined to the effort to make as many as possible to accept him as god and give him lip service with fear and selfinterest. Jesus was known as a man for others in his life-time as he was dealing with human suffering and predicament in his neighborhood, whether it was in the case of theembarrassed family at the wedding in Cana or the woman suffering with hemorrhage. He healed their body and liberated their spirit and made them whole. He ate with the hypocrites and renewed people likezacchaeus but also strongly criticized the systems and the structures. He boldly said that the Temple establishment had become corrupt. I suppose he would have used stronger language today at the Church establishment. His mission included the systems and structures which is sadly missing in the understanding of mission in the present day, due mainly to the denial of Jesus s humanity. Recently, there was a special TV program to celebrate the 96 th birthday of Billy Graham, the great servant of God. He was different from others as he maintained integrity in all respects of his personal life. But just like other preachers of today, as well as the leaders of the Church as a whole, he built up his organization with the help of billionaires, almost none of whom has neither a sense of justice nor the desire to understand that the structures and systems are also groaning for redemption. They will give for charity, making others dependent on them but will not entertain a new social order, a Gospel basedon the understanding of stewardship of the resources God has given. Sadly, all good preachers seem to ignore or miss this fact and, by their association and participation, support the ongoing unjust system of oppression and marginalization. Interestingly, the program on Billy Graham was hosted by the Fox News, a very conservative and reactionary station. Most great preachers are silent when it comes to justice and peace concerns and project an establishment bias in their communication. They hobnob with political leaders with dubious history, orientation or political persuasion as long as it adds to their standing in the society. I suppose it is because they fail to see the authentic humanhood of Jesus and his pattern of mission. Jesus had overcome the temptation to make compromises with evil which would have saved him from the cross. But he chose the cross and made his everlasting message. To be a disciple of Jesus is a daring activity, a process of swimming against the current, a willingness to be part of God s creative work and boldness to take risk. Most of what we see today in the name of our faith is quite contrary to what we saw in the life of Jesus. We have forgotten the Man from Galilee and have chosen exclusively the divine nature of Jesus Christ; we try to project him as a better god among gods and compete and fight for the prominence of our god. All religions do the same and if so what is the message we have for the world? The challenge of the message of the Man from Galilee is a wholesome onebecause he was wholly divine and wholly human. Let us not try to shrug off our part in this failure by blaming bishops or clergy alone as all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. I hope, like the Diocese of Newark, efforts will be made to recapture the wholly human aspect of Jesus Christ and revisit his earthly mission in order to understand the meaning of holistic mission today. This cannot be left to the bishops or the leaders of the Church alone as history shows that beneficiaries of any system will hardly initiate or support any change. But like Pope Francis who is boldly standing up to the establishment interests while being the head of it, bishops, clergy and laity, all have to do something fast rather than pass the buck. Let us light a candle rather than curse the darkness. {]ob hmb-\- m-cm, amkni ani D X \ne-hmcw ]pe Øp- p-sh A\-h-[n- t] Rßsf Adn-bn- p- p- v. \nß-fpss al-\ob klmbkl-i-c-w-ßƒ sim mwv \yphn-j amkni Ign 21 sim ambn aps-ßmsx {]kn- o-i-cn- psim- ncn- p- -Xv. ]pxnb ssien, hmb-\- m v Bi-b-ßƒ ] p shbv p-hm- \p Ah-kcw, A\p-I-c-Wob amxr-i-iƒ, Nn n- n- p tej-\-ßƒ XpSßnbh \yphn-js {]txy-i-x-iƒ BWv.

Foucault describes the past as a multiplicity of disparate forces in constant battle, which no traditional historical writing can do justice to. The historian s history, as he calls it, attempts to trace a continuous line through a disparate past, and in so doing produce an impression that events took place in a causal chain. Against this basic scheme, Foucault formulates an archaeological history that attempts to recover the forgotten areas of human thought, which is to say those huge areas of the past that are suppressed and consigned to oblivion by the historian s history. The linear history is, for Foucault, a structure of exclusion because in the process of constructing the impression of a seamless chain of events, it represses all counter-evidence that would contradict the scheme. This mass of conflicting forces in which events take place, but which are suppressed and excluded by traditional history to create the illusion of a free-standing and continuous sequence, is referred to by Foucault as a discursive formation.

Patriarch Peter III travelled extensively around the churches in Travancore and Cochin, His attempts to gain access caused some churches to be closed to him. This prompted appears by the patriarch to governors and officials, both British and Indian, who struggled to balance local custom and property rights with the Patriarch s insistence that, as the head of the syrian church, all syrian property was under his authority. In July 1876 the Patriarch convesed what he claimed was a synond of the syrian church at Mulanthuruthy... Following the synond the partriarch created seven dioceses and consecrated bishops for six of them (the seventh being assigned to mar Dionysos V)... significantly, all the new bishops had to swear an oath of loyalty to the patriarch. Mar Dionysos V was assigned the smallest of the newly created dioceses. It looks as though the patriarch was attempting to evacuate the malankara metropolitanate of its historic prestige and power. This presents and interesting contrast with Mathews Mar Athanasios who was clearly adhering to the older modes of the Puthenkattukar as a single community under a single Metropolitan As a result of his intervention there were now two parallel systems in Kerala. The traditional one headed by Mathews Mar Athanasios, was still in place, with a newly created multi-diocese system alongside it.

New Vision gives a new vision to the readers teaching life values. The message Rev. Mathew Baby gave in the Punnackadu CSI Church touched me very much. Achen s life experiences projecting Jesus the healer impressed me very much.
