Fwd: thought

> "He had nearly inexhaustible patience with individuals but no patience at all with institutions and injustice." ( Philip Yancey, "The Jesus I Never Knew" ) - How can a person stand on the side line and watch a person's house burn and do nothing to help because he has not paid his dues? Sick people came to Jesus for healing on the Sabbath and he healed them. He was "called on the carpet" because the law(institution) said it was illegal to do any kind of work on the Sabbath. Structure, law, necessary for function, stability, accomplishment, society,but these vehicles are not the end in themselves. All human institutions are accountable to the Spirit of Truth, The Ultimate Love….Compassion…..
