To Be in the Kingdom


To Be in the Kingdom

Thomas Keating


To be in the kingdom is to participate in God's solidarity with the poor by sharing with them the good things.... In the New Testament the great sin is to be deaf to the cry of the poor whether that cry springs from emotional, material, or spiritual need. Although we cannot help but partake in some degree in social injustice because we live in this world, we must constantly reach out in concrete and practical ways to those in need. Divine love is not a feeling, but a choice. It is to show mercy.
