"I Came That They May Have Life, And Have It Abundantly" (John 10, 10). Theological & Pastoral Reflection on the Christian Response: 'Life-giving' to People Living with AIDS in Urban Zambia Today
(Tangaza University College, 2004) Mulenga, Pontiano
A major challenge for Christians living in urban Zambia remains that of dealing honestly with PWAs. Rather than blaming the 'promiscuity' of AIDS victims, we need to consider AIDS problem as our problem. We need to learn that it is the Body of Christ which has AIDS — not 'those people', 'out there', but my brother or sister who is a precious part of that Body. Christians should remember that every sufferer is Jesus in painful disguise, indeed is all of us in painful disguise. The least you do unto one of these my brothers and sisters (our brothers and sisters), you do unio me (you do unto yourseW (cf. Mathew 25, 45).
