    Redeemed By the Sacrifice of Christ?
    (Tangaza University College, 2009) Kamoga, John Bosco
    At the start of one's theological studies, one will be introduced to theology as a science of "faith seeking understanding". Human experiences at times bring us face to face with the not so pleasant task of having to question our creeds with the aim of trying to make sense of them, especially those times when what we profess as our faith is contr.Oadicted by our human experiences. At the heart of this work is the earnest attempt to grapple with the negative dimensions of the human predicament, even as the Christian faith continues to teach and hold as an article of faith the fact that Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, by his life, ministry, passion, death, burial, resurrection, heavenly intercession and sending of the Spirit, offered a sacrifice which had an eternal effect on the condition of humanity and the rest of creation. The Church teaches that by this single sacrifice, humanity is redeemed as an integral whole from sin and all the enslaving forces, and conditions hindering the human person from experiencing wholeness and enjoying a good relationship with his or her inner self, the rest of humanity, the environment and God.
