   The road to peace and reconciliation 1 is a complex and painful process, whether in national or indeed individual conflicts. It involves the conquering of fear, the dealing 2 with bitterness and outrage 3, and the building of trust. It can be supported or subverted 4 by those outside of the immediate 5 situation as well as those inside. Yet it has to start somewhere with one side making the first vulnerable move, and taking risks for peace.As a Christian 6 celebrating Easter, I have been struck once again that the work of God in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is often described in terms of peace and reconciliation. The New Testament 7 sees the selfishness and arrogance 8 of human beings as leading to separation from God and from one another. However, it continually emphasises that God makes the first move in offering a new start of reconciliation, with the cross being the place of vulnerability and pain which achieves it.


  不管是个人之间还是国家之间,相互妥协、通向和平之路总是个复杂崎岖且痛苦的过程,因为这是一个战胜恐惧,克服苦难,消弭暴行,建立信任的过程。在千钧一发之际,任何外部内部的力量都会改变其走向。但是总要有一方先做出让步,为和平冒上一点险。作为一个基督徒庆祝复活节时,我又一次意识到,耶稣的死和复活经常被描述为某种意义上的和平和调解。《新约》认为人的自私和傲慢最终导致了人神分离,造成了人与人的隔阂。然而,《新约》也不断强调,上帝给了大家一个重新和解的机会,而十字架下的妥协与苦难是必由之路。
