Today we commemorate the 41st anniversary of the death of second greatest revolutionary the world has ever known.

'We cannot be sure of having something to live for unless we are willing to die for it'. It is the 9th of October, and the 41st anniversary of the death of Ernerto, 'Che' Guevara. Whatever we may feel about this revolutionary figure, and the things he said and did, we cannot deny that this quote above could be a Christian missionary cry. The question I want to ask is...is what we live and die for worth it?

Che lived and died for what he considered to be a worthwhile cause, the socialist revolution. I still feel ambiguous towards this wonderful but misguided idea. However, Jesus Christ died for something different: the establishment of the kingdom of God. Justice, peace and righteousness. What would die for, what would I die for.

On the 9th of October, we honour 'el Comandante, Che Guevara' but every day we should live for Jesus Christ, the greatest of revolutionaries. Are we as committed as he was?
