Just because it's different doesn't mean that it's wrong. It's just different." As we think of loving others based on Christ's summation of all the Old Covenant law, the question remains, "Do we love people?" Sometimes people are difficult to love, but Christ calls us to do so.

So the question remains: Do we truly love other people? --- Jesus summed up two things our lives should reflect: loving Him, and loving others. He wrapped all of the Jewish laws into one overa...
