總結:Harriet Tubman, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and Martin Luther King Jr were Christian leaders whose lives insisted on faithfulness that led them against the laws of their time. They were advocates of social justice and human rights who resisted the temptation towards a secularising, two-realms split that makes Christianity a private life religion; they defied contemporary norms, and they faced opposition to their work from their fellow Christians. Yet, today we see that they were right, and their contemporaries were wrong. We may learn from their prophetic witness for Christian faithfulness in our contexts, by paying attention to their respective interpretations of the way of Jesus.
