Preparation Question: Imagine if people were connected according to the spiritual law of love. How would these many issues be approached differently?

[Sharla Windham]

The idea of “mine” and ownership would be abolished. Conflict would be lessened in order to work toward common goods and not towards hording for oneself.

[Peter]

We would listen to each other.

[Delayne Mohammed]

1 Corinthians 13:4–8a (ESV) Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.

Its obvious that we do not practice this with others. If we did we would walk through and solve more problems while learning and growing with each other.

The persons involved in the issue would know the groups benefit is their benefit. In order to benefit myself I must first benefit the other. We must operate as a group. Each benefiting each other.

The tendency to immediately defend one’s position by blaming the opposition for any shortcomings and taking every opportunity to spin any situation to gain any short-term benefit for one’s position would at the bare minimum happen less often or better yet cease.  People would realize the person with whom they are opposed is part of them.  We all want pleasure and seek to avoid pain.  Who would continue to knowing harm themselves if they can avoid that pain?
