Foreword
The book entitled "Empowering to Transform Challenges of the Year of Jubilee" edited by Dr. Zulunungsang Lemtur and Dr. Temsuyanger Aier, gives a pivotal direction in terms of understanding and promoting transformation in our society from the perspective of the Jubilee. The vocation of Christian life and ministry is linked with the empowerment that calls us to do the Lord's transformative act and ministry in the world. In this connection, the word empowers means to give someone legal authority to do something in its completeness. Celebration of Jubilee is a sign of forgiveness and freedom from the bondage of sin through the redeeming power of Christ and empowering believers to transform every sphere of our life and society controlled by demonic forces and evil structures. The people of God are no longer in bondage, no longer slaves to sin, as Christ has freed them. As Christians, our freedom is grounded in forgiveness. Forgiveness liberates us and gives us our worth and identity in Christ Jesus. We experience being valued and transformed in Christ to become His instruments for transformation in the world. Empowerment took place in the lives of the disciples when they overcame their fear with the power of the Spirit from above, thereby, they were transformed and became transformative agents in the world. In our quest to understand and address the issues and challenges of the year of jubilee, it is all about being empowered to bring transformation and change to the people in the society where the evil forces of bondages, suppression, bigotry, injustice, exploitation of gender bias and discrimination have taken the upper hand.
