Summary: | The incarnation of God through Christ is the incarnation of love. As church, we embody Christ, and therefore we embody Christ’s love. As the body of Christ, it is imperative to actively embody the love of Christ for everyone, reconciling differences and fulfilling God’s plan of the wholeness of life designed for everyone through unity, by participating and working together in and with the spirit of Christ’s love beyond the borders of the church. Thus, the knowledge and the experience of Christ’s love should be experienced by creation through working together, for we need to be part of each other, not be apart from each other. |
