Cundy: in Christ

Wednesday, August 14, 2013
    Commemoration of Maximilian Kolbe, Franciscan Friar, Priest, Martyr, 1941
Meditation:
    We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
    —2 Corinthians 10:5 (NIV)
Quotation:
    To us with ideas of individuality inherited from Greek and Western philosophy, it may seem strange or even unjust, but this principle of ‘corporate solidarity’ is vital to Christian faith; without it the whole conception of transference from being ‘in Adam’ into another solidarity of being ‘in Christ’ is of little meaning.
