Sunday 11th August. An allegory.
When Jesus went in the house (Church ?), a blind man and a mute came in and He asked them : "Do you believe that I am able to heal you?" (Matthew 9: 28).
Is this a question for me and for us, people in the church? Is it about 'the spirit of unity' (to see and to speek to each other, to be cured of indiferrence and blindness?).
A moral hidden meaning may come clear when we read today the Letter of St. Paul to Romans 15:7 "Accept one another!".
To accept Jesus' lordship in all areas of life means to share His values and His perspective.
Just as we take His view on the authority of Scripture, the nature of heaven, and the resurection, we are to have His attitude of love toward other Christians as well - "the spirit of unity"!
