is not the preaching of the gospel.
A preaching that makes sinners feel good,
so that they become entrenched in their sinful state,
betrays the gospel's call.
A preaching that awakens,
a preaching that enlightens -
as when a light turned on
awakens and of course annoys a sleeper -
that is the preaching of Christ, calling:
Wake up! Be converted!
- Oscar Romero, The Violence of Love
