“Do you want to be healed?”
“Do you want to be healed?” John 5:6
The world Jesus chose to enter and will redeem, the condition in which he finds us and loves us:
“Evil is insolent and strong; beauty enchanting but rare; goodness very apt to be weak; folly very apt to be defiant; wickedness to carry the day; imbeciles to be in high places, people of sense in small, and mankind generally unhappy.”
Henry James, quoted in Saul C. Alinsky, Rules for Radicals (New York, 1971), page 14.
