Quote by Jon Sobrino on an orange background reads: 'As long as the poor are in pain and suffering, evangelizers struggle against that pain with all their might, for they regard it as possessing an ultimacy of its own. This profound mercy must be transformed into an active defense of the poor. And this will lead evangelizers into controversy, as it did Jesus. Now they will have to denounce those who make the poor poor and keep them poor. Evangelizers will have to tear the masks from their faces. This is the militant dimension of mercy. It has nothing in common with hatred, revenge, or uncontrolled rage. Rather it is the fruit of a love for the poor, and a realistic way of communicating to them that God is really with them.' The author's name and the book title, 'Spirituality of Liberation,' are included at the bottom.
