“When the Walls Come Down”

(May 9, 2010) Last week, we talked about God’s call that we relinquish the old ways of doing things, the old laws and rules (even though they are sometimes easier!). When we strip the barriers away and tear down the walls, we find that God’s new command is there in place: that we love as Christ loves. More than “just love,” though, this is a call to the most vulnerable, challenging, difficult aspect of our spiritual lives: to take on and live the very nature of God who is love. (Revelation 21:1-7; 22-22:5; John 13:31-35)
