Ministry of Truth Timely Update - 16 Feb 2024 - Sacrificial Co-laboring

 

Sacrificial Co-laboring

Even though stories of Jesus claim that he was a servant leader, that is a misinterpretation, since "service" has a negative connotation that may offend those on the receiving end.  Instead, it is clear that he was a sacrificial co-laborer, and as such, his followers must not fall into the oppressor's trap of calling for "service" to the needy.  Service "may invoke power dynamics across socio-economic, racial, and cultural lines," so even formerly religious schools must eschew the existence of an unbalanced power dynamic in their interactions with their fellow humans – like the social justice warrior Jesus.
