Who you are matters so much more than what you do. For who you are determines the compass by which you navigate the moral terrain of this life. If you are a selfish conniving rat, then you will follow the laws of the land provided they are useful to you. If not useful, you'll twist them until they conform to your personal template. If, however, you are a person of integrity who loves, and sacrifices for the sake of others, you will find yourself following a Christ-centered law that has the most elegant and simplest of centers. If you follow Christ, the law takes care of itself. In fact the mark of the Christian is their love for others. What law(s) are you most careful to abide by?
