From Lesslie Newbigin, The Open Secret, page 176
Christology is always
to be done in via,
at the interface
between the gospel
and the cultures which it meets on its missionary journey.
It is of the essense of the matter that Jesus was not
content to leave as the fruit of his work a precise
verbatim record
of all that he said
and did, but that
he was concerned
to create a community
which would be bound
to him in love and
obedience, learn
discipleship even in
the midst of sin and
error, and be his
witnesses among all peoples.
