Abstract
In determining the stance and commitment of the church in a changing
South Africa there is a constant danger for the denominations involved to
become one-sided and ideologically contaminated. The church is adjusted
neither to confirming or denying any society. The present-future
dialectics of the New Testament enables the church to become its real
self in the tension between being part of this world and reaching fulfilment
in a future world - the kingdom of Christ in the final stage. The
present-future dialectics of the New Testament enables its church to be
both critical and loyal in present-day societies. Only this church is able
to play a significant role in a changing South Africa. If any denomination
loses this dialectical tension, the church loses itself.
