There has to be something true about Christ in that His message causes soo much tension in the world. This tension is found in His message and life juxtaposed against the bare or naked truth of our human nature( See Romans 7). The simple initial point of entry in this transgenerational discussion is the following: Abraham had no law. Jacob, Joseph and Moses did not have any law as well. They had no codified law. They had universal law such that Adam and Eve were married in God's common universal law, Cain was chastened in this law about being his brother's keeper and not his exterminator, Abraham was warned about his activities with the beautiful woman in his home who was not his wife and Pharaoh was warned about Abraham's wife. They had Universal law as provided by God or God's common law which was eventually codified in Moses' great experience into the written law of the ten commandments. It seems evidently that the Holy Spirit( also referred to as the Shekinah glory ) was guiding people into all truth before the law was codified. He is still working. Read Romans 8. Then read Roman 10 and 11.
We celebrate this Christmas joyfully. Happy holidays and Happy Hanukkah to all from the TV Channel. You don't have to get into the "married" or "engaged" mind space to forget that the person you have spent the last four years enjoying your rollerblades, icecream, your parent's basement and matching bicycles is your friend. They were always your friend. You can forget any day of the week while eating mussels, oysters, egg plants and peaches when sucking out all the meat of the uh fruit. God bless and Merry Christmas!!
