Loving Your Neighbours
There are many ways in which we can love our neighbours in this 'pan-there-meek'. But what I am going to share might be something different from what you already know as a believer.
Yes, you might be doing what you can, which includes giving to the needy, praying/ministering healing for people, helping others, taking vexination (with the right motive; otherwise it's still for self benefit only), etc.
But there is ONE thing we can do 𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬 to love our neighbours ------ that is to 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐟𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐡.
In all circumstances take up the 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐡, with which you can 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 of the evil one. - Eph 6:16
Since the shield of faith can extinguish the flaming darts of the evil one, you protect your neighbours by walking in faith. Why? When you walk in faith (instead of fear), you repel sickness and you cannot become a virus-carrier.
This is how you protect and love the people around you. Because the vexination does not stop you from being a carrier. Statistics have shown that the vexine cannot repel sickness. So if you (believers) really want to love your neighbours, it's not by taking vexine, but by walking in faith so that you extinguish the flaming darts. Because if you take the vexine and you still walk in fear, you have much potential to become the virus-carrier.
Of course, this is just one different way of loving people, apart from the many ways you already know.
I know this is not talked in the institution and it sounds abnormal. Well, the Kingdom of God is an upside down kingdom. It is never the same as the world. If your belief is so similar to the world, yours might not be Christianity.
Disclaimer: Walking in faith does not mean ignorance and recklessness. It is about trusting Him and keeping your mind stayed on Him so that quiet confidence is born from within to repel sickness.
