“In effect: The Gospel of Jesus Christ should be proclaimed and inculturated! Clearly, this does not mean taking European or Western culture to the indigenous. It means offering Christ as the Saviour and Redeemer, friend and brother, along with his calls for changing one’s life, family, social relations, the world of economics, the rejection of idols, slavery, and the forces of the natural world. That the Gospel truly enter into their cultures. This is how to inculturate the Gospel.”
