Title
The Principle of Mercy,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The essays in Sobrino's latest collection bear on one of the most pressing signs of the times: the existence of a 'crucified people, ' the poor and oppressed of our world, whose suffering presents Christian faith with an urgent demand that we 'take them down from the cross.' Writing from the Salvadoran context, he presents a 'theology of mercy, ' reflecting on the principles of mercy and solidarity as the mode of Christian witness and discipleship in a world of conflict and suffering. In a personal introduction that sets the tone, Sobrino describes the evolution of his own thinking under the impact of the Salvadoran reality. Part One focuses on the essential character of mercy, and on the importance of shaping the mission of the church and the task of theology. Part Two analyzes the crucified reality of the Third World with specific reflections on salvation, forgiveness, and the grace of being forgiven. Part Three presents two manifestations of mercy: the reality of priesthood and solidarity. Finally, in a moving Afterword, Sobrino focuses on his martyred fellow Jesuits of the Central American University, a group who paid the ultimate price of mercy.
