in the Word, there is so much knowledge and statements like "do this" and "rememember that". it is impossible to rememeber them all, much less follow them...Christ followers (myself so included) get bogged down.
but the heart of the Word isnt found in following all guidelines for moral living....
the heart of the Word is found in falling in love with the person of Jesus. as one falls in love with Him, change does happen...He changes our desires. so we atually WANT to love others, and to love ourselves.
it all boils down to love God, love others.
and as He is changing our heart to love others, we find we actually are fullfilling guidelines (Romans 13:8)
but our focus is on loving God and then loving others.
