25: Business as Community

Hebrews 10: 24-25
The New International Version

And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds.
Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

Udo Middelman
Pro-existence (p. 59), InterVarsity Press, 1974

Humanness - that’s what we must stress, if we are really the children of God, redeemed as men. Without it community dies. So I would encourage all of us to outdo each other in order to create, in order to have something to share. Let us not take offense at what others have. Let us be stimulated to create thing of value ourselves. And let us cultivate spiritual values which we can also share, outdoing each other in godliness, in true faith, in true humanity and in true communion. Then indeed we will be able to speak the gospel in a living way.
