This article examines Steve Bikoâs theology of human and divine agency, centred on his remark, âGod is not in the habit of coming down from heaven to solve peopleâs problems on earth.â Engaging John D. Caputoâs radical theology and its relational model of the chiasm, it explores the interdependence of divine insistence and human responsibility. Highlighting Bikoâs critique of apartheid-era Christianity and his call for Black self-liberation, the article emphasises his theology as a call to responsibility. The dialogue with Caputoâs framework opens a deeper understanding of Bikoâs theological vision, offering a relational approach to agency that redefines divine-human interaction in the struggle for justice and liberation.
