The good, the bad, and the sinful (chapter 62)
Manage episode 301555366 series 2917671
In this episode, we look at chapter 62, which is one of the only chapters where Lao Tzu compares good and bad people and the ONLY chapter where he uses a word often translated as "sin". I'll start by talking about how radically countercultural and even offensive Jesus's teachings of enemy-love are in the Middle Eastern culture I work in, then we'll take a look at three aspects of this chapter:
- The Tao (and Christ) as treasure to the good and refuge to the bad
- Do not abandon a bad person (and what even IS a bad person?)
- Hopeful universalism - a great motivation to spread the love of Christ
