Gal 5:1-6
Are We Led by Law or
Love?
Every religion has good traditions, customs, and practices. Jews practice circumcision. It is a sign of the covenant with God and has health benefits. It has become a good sign of the relationship between God and Jews. At the coming of Jews and the Apostles, society was divided
between circumcised and uncircumcised.
It is not necessary to be
circumcised to follow Jesus. Baptism in the Lord is enough. Above all, one needs faith and love in Jesus to be his followers. Faith
and love are the guiding signs of Christianity. Jesus came to proclaim faith in
the Father and love of the other.
Do we follow the law or the love of God?
