Love & the Law
Where have you seen love bring clarity in the midst of confusion or order in the midst of brokenness?
1 John 3:4
Sin is lawlessness.
I’ve heard people talk about sin in a lot of different ways but never in this “Lord of the Flies”-esque way.
I spend a lot of my time thinking about systems of oppression being held up by laws or culturally through red flag rules. I think of power, corruption, and greed as sin, but I’ve never considered lawlessness.
Yet, the Bible is full of rules and full of people breaking them.
What a gift Jesus is to us as he simplifies all those laws to one: Love God with all your heart, soul, and mind.
Where have you seen love bring clarity in the midst of confusion or order in the midst of brokenness?
