Dialogue between Jews and Christians is conversation between them as members of their own communities. Dialogue also involves witness and solidarity, the responsibility to truth and love. Such dialogue requires respect and discipline in light of the call of the other. It is neither betrayal of one's own call, nor a renunciation of solidarity. Those who dialogue are not the vanguard for others who want to proselytize.
Dialogue is the essence of Christian-Jewish relations.
Christian participation is an option which does not derive from convenience or liberal indifference which says it is irrelevant what one believes. Where Christian-Jewish dialogue succeeds as a witness to truth and solidarity, the divine name is sanctified between Jews and Christians and before the world. With kind permission of the author.
