humanity — Reflections & Stories — Holy Trinity Falls Church

It’s a human thing to struggle with love for those we do not know or like. In scripture, we often lose sight of the fact that Jesus is not only fully divine, he is also fully human. And as fully human, He would have had the human proclivity to see the world in terms of insiders and outsiders, friends and enemies. But Jesus didn’t just teach this love of neighbor, he lived it, concretely, healing and breaking bread with those he met, even those considered outsiders and enemies.

Unintended Consequences of the Reformation

Now, as we sit here on Reformation Day, 502 years later, we may be able to celebrate these theological doctrines to be true, but something else has happened over the same course of time that has had an even greater influence on humanity as a result of Martin Luther’s reforming acts. We can think of this as the unintended consequences of the reformation.
