Saturday, October 30

Go on carrying the burdens of one another, and in this way you will fulfill the law of the Christ.—Gal. 6:2.

 

Jehovah God loves his worshippers. He always has, and he always will. He also loves justice. (Ps. 33:5) So we can be sure of two things: (1) It pains Jehovah when his servants are treated unfairly. (2) He will make sure that justice is served. The Law that God gave Israel through Moses was built on love. It promoted justice—justice for all, even vulnerable ones. (Deut. 10:18) That Law reveals how deeply Jehovah cares about his worshippers. The Mosaic Law ended in 33 C.E. when the Christian congregation was established. Would Christians be without the benefits of a law that is built on love and promotes justice? By no means! Christians had a new law—“the law of the Christ.” Jesus did not write down a law code for his followers, but he did give them instructions, commands, and principles to live by. “The law of the Christ” includes everything Jesus taught. w19.05 2 ¶1-3

Love is a matter of justice and justice is love in realizable action. The Law of the Christ reveals a facet of Jehovah’s love as He cares deeply about our welfare. It proves that He loves justice. The Law of the Christ set a perfect example of how to treat others fairly. Jehovah wants us to be just & loving when dealing with others in what we say or do. Jehovah blesses us when we are loyal to Him & treating one another justly.

• So the “law of the Christ” governs what we do at home, at work or at school, and in the congregation. (Gal. 6:2) 

  ... When we obey the law of the Christ, we are obeying our loving God, Jehovah, who is the Source of all that Jesus taught.—John 8:28. w19.05 3 ¶6-7
