A Stop Sign
You must come to a complete stop before entering the intersection is the letter of the law but this does not ensure that you fulfill the spirit of the law which is to yield to those who have the right of way. Do you have to fulfill the letter of the law in order to fulfill the spirit of the law? Don’t tell this to the guy writing you a ticket but in most cases you don’t. Jesus gave us the spirit of the law in the New Testament. Love God and your neighbor. All law hangs on this. We were given the letter of the law in the Old Testament. Look for your neighbor who is your brother in Christ and according to Blake you will find God and your soul.
