Mixtus-Americans Salvation from Oppressive Sin challenges the Christian Church to begin the work of healing, institutionally and nationally, from the results of faith divided by racism and perceived superiority.

We often look at salvation from sin in purely individual terms and have elected not to judge the collaborative actions of the wholeresulting in systemic national sin that remains unresolved despite the issues raised by liberation theology. Drawing on biblical teachings - in particular, the calls of the Old Testament prophets - Rev. Scott contends that liberation from oppression, rather than being a separate concern, is entirely implicit within salvation from sin. Until we move beyond the concepts of group supremacy and the right to dominate others, as a country and as a faith, the work of the Christian Church and the Civil Rights Movement remains unfulfilled.
