AB - Mysticism as a spirituality in the realm of religion has motivated moral agents into raising critical questions against traditional theological understandings of relationships among God, selves, and others in the world and further into saying ‘No’ against distorted social relationships through a direct experience of the union with God. Those who experience the true beauty of relationship based on the union cannot help but try to criticize dominant oppressive relationships and to build up new alternative ways of life in their social relationships, which can be interpreted as a resistance. This could be related closely to the praxis of justice as the purpose of law represented by God which Jacques Ellul considers conditions of the covenant with God. In the covenant, people as Mystiker, that is, people as moral agents who practice justice as a practical application of law are invited to creatively make new moral relationships which supports the abundance of life. The conjunction between mysticism in Christianity and the praxis of justice in the realm of law can be a responsible creating task for re-making alternative moral relationships.
