The idea of salvation by faith is a dangerous proposition directly
traceable to St. Paul and the legacy he left for a later writer to
expound: For by grace are you saved through faith . . . not by
works, lest anyone should boast (Ephesians 2:8-9). That proposition
has convinced generations of Christians that, if they only had a
little faith, things would get better and wrongs would be righted
by and by. This book proposes that salvation is a here-and-now
initiative by which human beings may act to save their planet from
the killing scourge of degradation and their societies from
violence-producing economic and social injustice. The state of
salvation is what the New Testament calls the rule or domain of
God. The Gospel of Luke quotes Jesus as saying that God s rule is
right there in your presence, suggesting that human beings have at
hand the wherewithal to save themselves and their environment.
Salvation is then a do-it-yourself project.
