Bring Glad Tidings to the Poor
Jesus read from the book of the prophet Isaiah, saying, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring glad tidings to the poor." What Jesus brought was the greatest news ever-salvation for all and liberation for the poor.
It has now been 2,000 years since Jesus ministered to the poor. But poverty in the world is deeper and more widespread. Injustice and oppression are rampant. Greed and selfishness rule the day.
As the world hurtles along to the end of time, the trumpets are being resounded. The call to the New Evangelization has been issued. The people of God are to proclaim anew the good news of salvation in Jesus.
The time of liberation is at hand.
