Criza refugiaţilor şi speranţa creştină
The Refugee Crisis and the Christian Hope

Summary/Abstract: The secular western world leaves at present the impression of vulnerability that has occurred in a prosperous citadel due to its dependence on that wellfare in front of the waves of desperate people looking for shelter, trying to escape death and destruction as a result of a complicated but not inevitable geopolitical situation and constituting anything but a menace, as history has demonstrated on repeated occasions.The spiritual thesaurus our Christian ethics is based on, contains the in depth description of such events that go with humanity since its very beginnings, of which one can find plentiful testimony in The Old and New Testament.The will to find the necessary courage to follow the guidance of these teachings leads easily to the discovery that living by the commands of the scripture is far less dangerous than ignoring them, a fact proven by the ambiguity and confusion of the sociological conclusions as well as by the political unrest. The majority of approaches that have tried, one way or the other, to ignore Christian ethics have turned, faster than their authors have expected, into wastelands that lead nowhere.The attitude of the practising Christian supposes, above all, the effort of assertion, the spiritual law becoming a priority overruling any other interests. This is obviously a decision that has to be taken individually before it is made public. As in many other circumstances of our history we are met by an outstreched hand, and this hand cannot help us unless we accept it.
