Love Your Neighbour as Yourself

Abstract

This paper examines the many ways interreligious dialogue and interreligious relationshipbuilding interact with and serve how we live outwith others-the moral core of the Christian faith, which is the love of God and neighbour. I take as an example the contemporary Poor People's Campaign in the United States. The campaign originated with the Rev. Dr Martin Luther King Jr, the Rev. Ralph Abernathy, and others involved in the civil rights movements of the early 1960s. While the Poor People's Campaign was initiated by and is led by Christians, it is intentionally inclusive of people of many different faiths and those with no particular faith, all of whom share the commitment to love and to serve the poor. Keywords human interconnectedness, common destiny, ethical action and responsibility, intrinsic worth, interreligious communities of dialogue The knowledge, practice, and experience that undergird interreligious dialogue are important for Christians in multiple ways. Also important are the ongoing relationships of friendship and solidarity between people from different religious communities that often organically result from such dialogue. This is especially true today as Christians seek to live out the moral teachings of Jesus in their daily lives and also as they work with others in civil society for social change through social action. According to scripture, Jesus taught his followers above all to love God and neighbour; all other moral teachings and obligations flow from this commandment. As depicted in the New Testament, Jesus, through his teachings and also through his actions, taught all CURRENT DIALOGUE Current Dialogue
