  1. Polhill—Anglican Calvinist—observes inhumanity in his era exceeded what existed before Christ arrived to deliver a Lecture of Love. The Incarnation provided two things: a renewed command to love, and a new motive—God giving his Son. Deriving neighborly ethics from orthodox Christology is precisely what Polhill does. Fewer orthodox pastors today would describe the Incarnation’s purpose that way.

  8. Abraham Kuyper, Dutch Refomed leader, says that God ordains that people should meet and love each other. He has designed attractors: recognizing suffering, bold appeals, or beauty.

    Today, the job of the conservative church seems to be to throw as much cold water on this process of recognizing “distress that arouses my love.”

    How can you be open to the work of the Holy Spirit in responding to distress that arouses your love?

    "What if someone who doesn't need it takes it? No one should get any, even the starving, to ensure that doesn't happen.”, an actual statement from a “Christian”(right wing republican).

  16. “Love your neighbour as yourself" applies online too! Kindness & compassion go a long way in Christian discipleship. Be mindful of your words on social media & use it to spread positivity & encouragement. #KindnessMatters #Christlike

    #Sanctions on #Iran are indeed an attack on its people.

    Sanctions are #warfare by alternate means. The people in #Iran, #Venezuela and #Cuba must be the most #Christlike people on planet earth these days.

    Today in #Australia #3M #facemasks were TAKEN from good #hospitals, under "claims" that they were not "effective".

    Yes it does sound familiar.

    ...and we are seeing at this time, that #kleptocrats are stealing from govts in huge quatities (#bailouts, #piracy on the highSeas, etc.). While #virtueSignalling in the #theMedia that they're #servingTheCommunity in an almost #ChristLike fashion.

    Keep your ear to the ground for #doublethink - its everywhere!!

    We are seeing it daily now!
