THURMAN’S CORNER – 9/14/20
The crucifixion of Jesus Christ reminds us once again of the penalty which any highly organized society exacts of those who violate its laws … Whenever a Jesus Christ is crucified, there will also be crucified beside him the thief – two symbols of resistance to the established pattern. When Christianity makes central in its doctrine the redemptive significance of the cross, it defines itself ever in terms of the growing edge, the advance guard of the human race, who take the lead in man’s long march to the City of God.
