Jesus Christ Frees and Unites" was the theme adopted by the 5th Assembly at Nairobi in 1975. The section titles echo concerns of that turbulent decade:
Confessing Christ today.
What unity requires.
Seeking community.
Education for liberation and community.
Structures of injustice and struggles for liberation.
Human development.
Pic says it all really. Its not from some Mel Gibson film either, its real 1970s.
“There is no harder misfortune in all human history than when the powerful of the earth are not also the first men. Then everything becomes false and awry and monstrous. And when they are even the last men and more beast than man, then the value of rabble rises higher and higher and at last the rabble-virtue says: Behold, I alone am virtue.”- S.A.Israel
