Not a rule to keep. A direction to face.
I’ve spent most of a lifetime — six decades — learning to see what Scripture is actually doing beneath the surface. Some of it has come clear in ways I wish I’d seen sooner. There are no shortcuts, and no one can walk your road for you. But a fellow traveler’s notes can help. That’s all this is.
“Make Christ Your Aim” isn’t a slogan. The word behind “the law” means to aim — like an archer. The law was always aiming at something: Christ. To aim there yourself isn’t rule-keeping; it’s what the whole thing was pointing at all along. Miss that, and you miss the point.
It was never about religion. It’s more practical — and more real — than that.
No required order. But if you’re new, a few good doors in:
- Nowhere on That Spectrum — if the “law vs. grace” argument ever felt like it was missing something.
- From Puzzle Pieces to The Picture of Jesus Christ — how scattered pieces come together.
- The Law Was Always Pointing — what “fulfill” actually means.
- Through What Lens Do We View the Feasts? — the way of seeing the rest depends on.
If something resonates, look closer. If it doesn’t, no harm done. Either way — see for yourself.
