PETERSEN, Carsten Elmelund. The Christology Behind the Ethics of the Black Messiah. Scriptura [online]. 2022, vol.121, n.1, pp.1-19. ISSN 2305-445X. http://dx.doi.org/10.7833/121-1-2072.
Allan Boesak developed his ethics of the Black Messiah in the 1970s while he wrote his dissertation in Kampen, The Netherlands. These ethics said "no " to slavery, colonialism, apartheid, racism, and poverty as a consequence of oppression. Behind these ethics lies the Christological problem. Jesus Christ is truly God and truly human being, which is the universal Christian creed. What is the relationship between the universal confession to Jesus Christ as true God and true human being and the contextual confession to the Black Messiah? The Black Messiah is black for the black people for identification. Is the true humanity universal and the color contextual? The article gives a possible solution.
