RELI 448N Week 6 Discussion: The Role and Identity of the Messiah
RELI 448N Week 6 Discussion: The Role and Identity of the Messiah o Professor and Class, Chang (1994) in his book review discusses the challenges that Christianity is facing in t he 21st century. The most significant difficulties addressed are institutional and cultural (Chang, 1994). He explains that the basic church foundation faces challenges including the very preservation of the church. He states that the church foundation is necessary for the church community to survive to allow for individual moral identity grounded in the institution (Chang, 1994). I think society itself shows that these are valid concerns for the preservation of Christianity. People are free thinkers and politics and religion although “separate” remain enmeshed in different moral beliefs and multicultural influences. Examples include those that oppose abortion and those that believe abortion is an individual right, care of the poor and infirmed that cannot care for themselves both in the United States and foreign countries, and help for the aged and working poor. These are only a few of the moral issues that face Christianity today. Religious wars are happening in our world today and affect the lives of many people. History has shown a pattern of religious changes and Christianity is not immune to the passing of time or the influence of society. Chang, P. M. Y. (1994).
