experience of god resulted in the w oacnmandmenta the psaihnlatb experience resulted in the passage under consideration this lesson in it he declares devotion to the law tf god he feels however that he needs a fuller understanding of it and realizing that he cannot j keep it in his own strength he praysi for grace to keep it he realises- that although toe tries to keep the law it is only with gods help that he can do but god reveals himself supremely and perfectly hi jesus christ and je- sus gives a wider application to the old testament law thou shalt love thy neighbour is quoted from lev 1918 the word neighbour meant fellowisraelite and was taken to include converts from other races to the jewish faith but see how jesus goes beyond tills not only neighbours however generously the term is inter preted but also ones positive enemies are to be loved the reason for it is to be found in gods love which sends the blessings of sun and rain upon his enemies as well as upon his friends even the enemies of god publicans and sinners love those who love them these standards are hopeless ly inadequate because god reveals himself as different from this and the disciples must aspire to be like god be ye therefore perfect even as your father in heaven is perfect he calls us to be sons of god and as sons we must partake of his nature and his practice unless we love as he loves we fall short of achieving our sonshlp law and love may seem to be op posed at first sight for law is some thing that is imposed upon from with out while love is and must be spon taneous springing from the heart and yet in romans 1310 paul tells us that love is the fulfilling of the that is when we love we keep the law of god as st augustine put love and do as you please je sus actually unified the law by sum ming it all up under one heading love and be shows it to be not just a dfleamy sentiment of the heart but an active thing issuing in deeds by his own life and death jesus demonstrated what love is great as the old testament law is god did something immensely greater when he sent his son into the world to live and die sox men this was not tmnetwng vritten in stone it was written in flesh and blood what was written that god so loved the world that he gave his onlybegotten son that who soever belleveth on him should not perish but have everlasting life zt is easy to talk about love it is a different matter to be motivated by it especially if there is nothing in the object of love to motivate it people have loved their own loved ones since tkne without memory e can do that it is only natural we do not need to be told to express love of this kind if we do not we are un natural bot the point of the chris tian gospel is revealed in jesus word love your enemies bless them that curse you do good to them that hate you and pray for them which despite- fully use you and persecute you that is quite a different matter and chris tians should be the first to grant the criticism of the world that it is an im possibility j impossible as for a ca mel to go through the eye of a needle but the christian would say with men it is impossible but with god all things are possible the assumption that love is a readymade principle which we can adopt any time we want to and that there is no reason why we couldnt put it into practise any day if we realty made up our minds to do it has weak ened and confused our whole concep tion of wat jove is love is not of man love is or god love is div ine god is love but man isnt we are human beings with all the sinful ness and weakness of humanity we fight for our selfadvantage and inter est for our dignity and prestige and ppwer because chat is the nature of sbaful man ntthlngorjuld ife further than foe whkb and wweb tnonstrjjpp in hb life tod because it la beyond our reejgbaw go on ndojngt jwvtyorld ror ourseivepsna genelwaass rrysfc- unborn lofljrould solve but we do riot have it in our hearts and therefore all our problems remain unsolved jesus fa ces us up with the hopelessness of our situation when he says in such strong accents be ye therefore perfect we must realize our hopelessness un less nazilike we consider ourselves supermen therefore weurrtorced to seek gods help and seek his grace to give us the power to love which we do not have in ourselves gods grace is free ito all whoseek it and when by the exercise of simple faith a man accepts that grace he becomes a new crea ture old things have passed away be hold all things become new there is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in christ jesus who walk not after the flesh out after the spirit pot the law of the spirit of life in christ jesus hath made us free from the law of sin and death read the whole eighth chapter of romans
