APARTHEID is a very
familiar word.
This South African
system of separation of
the races has been
severely criticized. On
the other hand, defenders
off South Africa point out
problems which people
face in the many other
African countries which
have become in-
dependent.
But these countries do
not profess to be
Christian countries. The
white South Africans
claim to be Christians
and say that they can find
support for apartheid in
the Bible.
But surely they are
only using part of the
Bible. If one looks at it
all, one would find it
impossible to justify the
apartheid position.
How can they claim
that their use of black'
labour conforms with
Christian principles?
Many blacks are forced
to live away from their
families while they work
alone in white areas. Pay
standards for blacks and
whites doing the same
work are quite unequal.
How can they justify
passing a law against
racial intermarriage? If
people fall in love across
racial barriers they
should be free to marry
as they are in most
societies.
How can they justify
keeping Nelson Mandela
in prison on Robben
Island for life? His sin
was to call- for the one
man, one vote rule for
South Africans of all
groups.
"The God who created
the world and everything
in it.....created every race
of men of one stock, to
inhabit the whole earth's
surface" (Acts 3:26
NEB).

all of you are God's sons
in union with Christ
Jesus. So there is no
difference between Jews
and Gentiles, between
slaves dnd free men,
between men and
women; you are all one in
union with Christ Jesus"
(Galatians 3:26 TEV).
The tragedy of South
'.Africa is compounded by
its claim to be Christian.
They had the opportunity
of building a society
where all races could
share equally, but instead
have tried to give legal
sanction to an immoral
and unchristianidea, that
the whites must always
remain above the rest.
In the light of history,
the beginning of the end
of apartheid may be the
death of Steve Biko, the
46th political detainee to
die in police custody in
recent years.
Steve Biko was a black
South ..African, 30 years
old, and at the height of
his powers. He was an
Anglican layman of acute
intellect, spiritual depth
and moral courage, the
pioneer of black con-
sciousness and selfhood
among 20 million non-
white South Africans.
His death is a supreme
example of the fruits of
inhumanity and fear1
which ' have been
produced by the white
South African regime
which claims at the same
time to be a guarantor
and a centre of Christian
f6ivilization. How long, 0
Lord?
Steve Biko, meeting
early death. like his Lord
before him, personifies
the confessing church in
