Fidel CastroIf people call me Christian, not from the standpoint of religion but from the standpoint of social vision, I declare that I am a Christian.
About This Quote
I love and admire Nelson Mandela and he is a great and inspiring man and this quote shows how the social vision of the church should match up to the social vision of the world. He’s saying if people call you Christian, not from the standpoint of religion but from the standpoint of social vision, then you know that you’re on your way. And as long as people think that you’re on your way, then you know that you’re getting closer to where you’re going.
