Sermon: Only It Wasn’t

The law is not given for legalism but for love. 

The shape of the law is love;
The purpose of the law is love;
The essence of God is perfect love;
The goal of creation is…wait for it…love.

And not cheap love or toxic love or teenage love or any other kind of synthetic, dupe, knockoff, imitation love on the market. Love at its purest, most real.

These commandments are two sides of the same coin, mutually interpreting one another, constantly spurring the other side on to fidelity and steadfastness.
