a scribe asked jesus what the most important commandment was, and jesus says to love god and then to love others as you love yourself, the scribe agreed and the jesus says, "You are not far from the kingdom of God."
meaning that the economy of the kingdom of god is all about relationships. the sum total of our lives will be measured in the relationships we have and how we treat them. that you can gauge where you are by the quality of your relationships. edwin mcmanus told me straight up that i wasn't ok today, and he was right. you can say that you're doing alright but when you honestly evaluate and you have no substantial, meaningful friendships, edwin says no sir. you are not ok.
