Love of power vs. Love is power – Paul Cumin

 June 17, 2018

 

Scripture: 2 Sam. 8.15; 9.1-8, 13; John 13.34-35

 

In our world, love and power are usually only connected with extreme difficulty. More often they tend to be functional opposites. In this segment from David’s life we see another possibility: the king is able to be powerful and to love powerfully. It’s a whiff of things to come in Jesus who is both the Most Powerful One and at the same time Love Incarnate.
