Through him SALVATION.

 A Revolutionary shepherd - CPI(M) No offence made..

SALVATION OR REVOLUTION
Folks,
I am sure most of you people must have gone through the recent activities done by CPI (M) to glorify or tarnish (take it as per your own perception) the reputation Christianity by portraying Jesus Christ as a revolutionary. I have my own reservations about the way the issue being handled by the new age shepherds of Christians.

Having said that, When we look at rituals that we follow to worship the saviour, it differs from people to people and region to region, So in simple words- nobody has got any right to oppose or accept the views that CPI (M) or anyone made about Jesus Christ, as long as they don’t hamper X’ian followers in worshiping the Saviour in their own views and ways. In a recent discussion forum i attended despite my rebuff, few of my friends were trying to prove that Christianity is not religion but a way of approach or even like a face book page to follow. (I personally  deny here)Hence, it is clear and evident that, everyone has got their own view to Mr. God,  and there is a propensity to  portray Jesus as communist martyr or a congress freedom fighter or a BJP follower, it’s all absolutely depending upon your personal view to the society, religion, politics and the angle you keep towards the issue. 

Being a Christian, these drawings, cartoons and media gimmicks won’t shake the true faith of the Christ followers. I would rather say, our comrades may have got inspired by reading Holy Bible to write Das Kapital, as first volume of DK was published in AD 1867. But the irony is that our comrades took 1867 years to get inspired, or 2012 years to admit/ fabricate the plot. And it took as many years for our priests to authorise and acknowledge that Saviour is a revolutionary.

Still there is one question left- why don’t our priests  keep Che- Guvara  in the church premises. ?or is it merely a mistake of misunderstanding the word SALVATION and REVOLUTION !!! ?Let me reiterate the phrase again - Through him SALVATION,       (not revolution)
