This book examines the way the Good News was compromised with the system of discrimination down the centuries, and the anomaly it created to the Christian values of brotherhood and sisterhood of all. It includes an evaluation of the moral teachings of the present day Church. This evaluation shows that we have not repented nor been converted to the Gospel values even today. We find in the Bible that untouchability as a practice of discrimination existed in Israel at the time of Jesus and that it had its roots in the Bible itself! The struggle of Jesus was precisely against the practice of untouchability prevalent in his place and time. Jesus was not exactly giving an example for the oppressed to carry their cross meekly unto death. He was rather asking them to fight discrimination even if it would cost them their lives! His struggle should become directly relevant to them. They should discover in Jesus their hero, their leader, their God who died for their liberation. The New Testament also speaks of the struggle of Jesus' apostles to keep themselves faithful to the Way he carved out for them. Paul emerges as the valiant champion of the cause of the untouchables as he affirms the equality of all in Jesus. When Peter discriminated against non-Jewish Christians of Antioch on the question of table fellowship, Paul, condemned him. For Paul, such a practice of discrimination went against the truth of the gospels.

Are you tired of the doctrine that says Christians must struggle against the world, the flesh, and the devil? What if I told you that you could become totally untouchable by the enemy? With these questions, Pastor Chris Harrison begins a journey that takes the reader from living in fear and condemnation, constantly harassed by Satan, to a place of love, acceptance, and confidence in the grace of God. Follow along as Pastor Harrison presents biblical proof that believers arent supposed to battle the devil but are called by God to live securely in grace, shielded and untouchable.

Communist seamen were docked at U.S. ports, but no one was reaching them with the Gospel. An Indian tribe in Central America was being taught that salvation came through the church and their good deeds. Thousands in leper colonies in Thailand were not only losing their limbs, but losing all hope, because no one seemed to care. Thai children of lepers slept in sewers, and Thai orphans were often sold as sex slaves. Thousands in pro-Communist Mongolia had never heard that Jesus died for them too. One man emerged to bring these peoples hope through demonstrating Christ's compassion and presenting to them the Gospel. This man was Tommy Tillman and you simply must read his story. "Tommy Tillman ate and slept with the lepers of Thailand to reach them with the Gospel. He is one of the most outstanding missionaries of our day. I am not exaggerating when I say that he is a modern day David Livingstone or Adoniram Judson. Reading about his life of faith will seriously impact you!" -Dr. Gary R. Jackson Liberty Baptist Church Sarasota, Florida About thirty years ago, Tommy and Jo Ann Tillman dedicated their lives to spreading the Gospel and have continued doing so ever since. Many years back, doctors told Tommy he would soon die from heart complications, but he is still alive. Now the couple has a base in Tennessee, but Tommy constantly travels back to his beloved people in Thailand and Mongolia. He wants to continue his work until it is physically impossible to do so.

This volume develops a historically informed phenomenology of caste and untouchability. It explores the idea of ‘Brahmin’ and the practice of untouchability by offering a scholarly reading of ancient and medieval texts. By going beyond the notions of purity and pollution, it presents a new framework of understanding relationships between social groups and social categories. An important intervention in the study of caste and untouchability, this book will be an essential read for the scholars and researchers of political studies, political philosophy, cultural studies, Dalit studies, Indology, sociology, social anthropology and Ambedkar studies.

Dalit Theology And Dalit Liberation written by Peniel Rajkumar and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2016-05-13 with Religion categories.

In fulfilling the long-awaited need for a constructive and critical rethinking of Dalit theology this book offers and explores the synoptic healing stories as a relevant biblical paradigm for Dalit theology in order to help redress the lacuna between Dalit theology and the social practice of the Indian Church. Peniel Rajkumar's starting point is that the growing influence of Dalit theology in academic circles is incompatible with the praxis of the Indian Church which continues to be passive in its attitude towards the oppression of the Dalits both within and outside the Church. The theological reasons for this lacuna between Dalit theology and the Church's praxis, Rajkumar suggests, lie in the content of Dalit theology, especially the biblical paradigms explored, which do not offer adequate scope for engagement in praxis.
