Despite our desire to root out the sin we see — especially in others — Jesus says ‘No weeding allowed!’ as he works forgiveness and faith on the basis of his own holy suffering and death for all humanity’s sin, and a new creation too, brought into fulfilment at the last day, not before. [Pentecost 8]
