ABSTRACT

In Jesus Christ, God's will to life took flesh in history. In the person, ministry, death and rising of Jesus, we see the dawning of the Kingdom of Life. It is universally accepted that the central message of Jesus's preaching and ministry is the Kingdom of God. As the embodiment of his own message of Jesus's preaching and ministry is the Kingdom of God. As the embodiment of his own message, Jesus himself is considered the personification of the Kingdom. Our interest lies in seeing how Jesus is truly the Life and the Kingdom of God the Kingdom of Life. Becoming authentically Asian is inseparably connected with the mission of being Church in Asia and presenting Jesus with an Asian face. Inculturation should be viewed as integral to Christian life, affecting every aspect of the life and mission of the Church. It is a collective task of the whole Christian community.
