so how do we live with AIDS

The way of Jesus is clear: a Christian AIDS response means we are called to express the unconditional love of God to all in need regardless of how they come to be so. Yikho esikubizelweyo bazwalane. This is the practical aspect to Christianity.

If one is seriously hurt in a car crash rush to help. We don’t walk away just because the person was drunk and that is why there was an accident. Nor do we start preaching an anti-drunkenness sermon in the ambulance or on the ward..

With those affected by HIV/AIDS we are called to be helpful, to care and express love. The church has to act, seeking always to serve others. We are there as servants of the Most High, yena ophakemeyo.
