God is our neighbor, and our neighbor is God; Himself, dwelling within His own storehouse of all humanity. Therefore, it is impossible for us to love God, without loving one another as brethren; and it is impossible for us to love one another as brethren, without loving God Himself… as, in Christ, we are now all one. Have we not seen, or taken notice? Have we not heard? Christ is all, and in all. All that we are presently doing unto one another, how we are presently treating one another; we are doing unto, and treating Christ Himself! This is the great mystery of His incarnation; for we are members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones. Yet what image of our Father are we harboring in our hearts, minds? Under the law, or old testament, ten commandments were generally recognized, emphasized; however, once Jesus came, but still while under the old testament, He whittled down those ten commandments unto two commandments. Yet we don’t see those two commandments as being the two crossbeams of His own cross, upon which All The Law & The Prophets… incarnate… were hanged, crucified; neither do we comprehend that Jesus Himself was meant to fulfill those two commandments by His death, because it was His death that those two commandments were actually requiring!... |
