| Description | Confession of guilt in theological perspective For more than four decades (1948-1994) South African society was ravaged by a political dispensation of apartheid. This unjust system of legalised discrimination was widely typified as a sinful ideology and the Biblical justification of it as a heresy. It could be expected that the question would arise whether Christians, churches, politicians, government and other socio-economic institutions which supported and implemented apartheid should openly confess their sins of participation and/or negligence in this regard. The author argues that a confession of guilt in the South African context can be substantiated from a Biblical perspective, from church history and from the Reformed confessions. Confessions of guilt are an essential and indispensable part of Christian doctrine and Christian life. | |
