The problem with Romans 12:9-21

Usually the problem with a text is getting to where we can understand the text.

That's not the case with Romans 12:9-21. I think that we understand it just fine.

Our problem is not understanding the text, it is doing the text.

Treating each other as Christ would have us treat each other is a monumental task. And most of us do not feel up to the task.

Often it's not so important what we do, so much as how we do it. Are we working at love?
