Stepping Up: Part 4

Part 4: No Exceptions

Christ’s teaching was vastly different from that of other rabbis, who were mainly concerned with obscure arguments in the Law. Like the scribe in Luke 10, we want to justify ourselves by limiting who we’re responsible for. Jesus won’t have it. We learned this story as little children, and thought it was about a nice man helping someone out. When you put yourself in the shoes of that scribe, though, it’s much more radical. When Jesus said “love your neighbor,” he didn’t leave room for exceptions.
