"As it is in heaven": a case for 'realized' communal living

The daunting sojourn of migrant church members can be likened to what’s described in John Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress. What the Church offers them are the rituals of formation and a host’s temporary benevolence. Their expressed spirituality sees sacraments as means of grace towards a higher status through competition. The quest for earthly status by using sacraments as means to economic salvation is an expression of a progressive spirituality. This thesis closes the gap between spirituality and earthly status through a progressive form of liberation theology as an evangelistic framework, using farming as an ancient and economically beneficial ritual.
