In the Old Testament there are some rules meant to change how people behave in a specific context.
In the New Testament, there’s yet, another change – updating the old Laws, changing the paradigm, and making it Universal.
The first rule in life? Change things (aiming for the better, of course). The second rule? Change them in such a way that you do a positive thing.
The New Man – the Church wants people to change, for the better, of course. But, first, change.
The first rule is change; only the second one is actually succeeding.
At least, that’s how I see things.
