Easter..... "Rebellious"!

Long time ago, there was a referent in the Netherlands, who made an own interpretation in an Easter service, about the resurrection of Jesus.
He said: Jesus was "Rebellious"!
It was in the period of the liberation theology in South America, mostly driven by Roman Catholic priests. A movement that did much for poor people under the fascistic dictatorship. Now a days it doesn't exicst anymore.

Jesus was REBELLIOUS!

Not a silent, devotional Jesus, but one who showed us another way to look at God.
The question about the historical Jesus, is not so important, but His image of God has for me more to say: rise up against injustice, don't let you press down, don't let you make addicted to people, who can destroy you, don't let you lull asleep.
As J.S.Bach has translated in music:
'Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme'        'Sleepers awake'.


I wish you a Glad Påsk (as they say in Sweden).
Keep alive
Aleke.
