by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace,
The new law of love is the basis of western civilization. The natural law is brutal. Survival of the fittest, whoever has might is right. However the law of love is one which is contrary to our natural inclinations. It says to the weak, we will make a way for you, for the poor is says we will help. When you visit cultures not influenced by the great law of love you find abject poverty with no one even working on a solution. Except the Mother Theresa type who are transplanted. The law of love will always prevail. For it provides a better life. It is not our democratic form of government which was informed by this great law, nor is it capitalism which enables our society to tower above all others economically. Fact: US economy - 14 trillion per year, our next closest competitor is less than 5 trillion. There is something about this law of love that has been proved through the ages and now through our politics that indeed the societies which are influenced by this law have created a better life for it's inhabitants. Pardon me for being politically incorrect but the facts are the facts.
APPLICATION
To humbly rest in the occurence that I am a blessed individual to have been born into this great nation.
Welcome
One of the most effective ways to allow the Word of God to affect your life is to study it inductively. That is what this blog is all about. Typically one verse per day will be mined for insight and then followed up with how I plan to implement that insight practically. My prayer is that in some way you find this useful in your journey and that it may impact you positively. -G
