       He did say that those who have been forgiven much, they what? They love much. So, those of us who have been forgiven little, then, in return, don’t love as much. Those who were really bad, then, often are able to help others even more, but again, this doesn’t make them more valuable in God’s eyes. Within our liberty then, within the Law of Liberty (that freedom from God we have as new creations, that which I have defined), it is in that then that we actually choose to practice works, to help others. We help others out of our great compassion that we have found in being free. Since we have a true sense of our value in our correct understanding of who we are as a new creation, as so greatly valued by God, we seek to be an imitator of God’s display of value and therefore value others the same. Of course, we will do this in different ways—in ways that are characteristic of God’s gifting within each one of us. We have the ability to help with basic needs, and even specific needs of our fellow people based on God’s gifting to us. Our gifting helps us to give out of the abundance of our gift to others.
