Newbigin: relatedness

Commemoration of Oswald Chambers, spiritual writer, 1917
Meditation:
Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.
—1 Peter 4:8 (NIV)

Quotation:
From its first page to its last, the Bible is informed by a vision of human nature for which neither freedom nor equality is fundamental; what is fundamental is relatedness.
... Lesslie Newbigin (1909-1998), Foolishness to the Greeks: the Gospel and Western culture, Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing, 1986, p. 118 (see the book)

Lord, cast out ambition and envy from my heart, so that I may love the brothers.
