God Reveals Himself to His Creation

Dr. George Sabra was interviewed by Al MayadeenAjras Al Mashriq program—on Sunday, December 20, 2015. Sabra tackled many different theological issues: ‘The relation between theology and people's life’, ‘the relation between theology and philosophy’, ‘theology and science’, ‘theology and ethics’, ‘the differentiation between liberation theology and Marxism’, ‘the significance of Christian - Muslim dialogue’, ‘the importance of diversity’, and many other important topics. He also commented on the notion of the ‘holy war’ at modern times, ‘nationality and faith’, ‘Reformation and church authority’, and the ‘Reformation impact on classical theology’. Too many topics for a short interview (40 minutes), nevertheless, Sabra gave for each case a precise explanation and a new insight. Concluding his message he said: “God reveals Himself to His creation. Even if there were different worlds (or lives) than the one we know, God would never let Himself unknown to His creation.”

God’s love was made flesh in the birth of Jesus. He loved us enough to take on our poverty, our indignities and fears. He even died that we may rise again as a new creation. He is—Emmanuel—with us and He is our Savior (Yeshuu).

May in this blessed season we experience the presence of the Lord. Chanting and signing for His presence ushers the joy and hope in the midst of darkness which envelops the earth. May His love flames the voice of faith in our hearts, because faith illuminates our steps and the horizon of the New Year to come.
