The history of Christianity reveals to the Christian what kind of presence Christ wanted to have in history.
To seek to erase that history, to return to the lone Christ of the gospels, is not a gesture of devotion but of pride.

  1. The original Spanish is:

    La historia del cristianismo revela al cristiano qué presencia Cristo ha querido tener en la historia.
    Pretender borrar esa historia, para retornar al solo Cristo evangélico, no es gesto de devoción sino de orgullo.
