Do I Have to Trust My Neighbor? (Ep113)

  • Summary

  • Because love is not primarily an emotional disposition toward someone else but is instead about self-sacrificial actions, trust is baked into such a relationship. We come to know and love someone precisely by trusting in that person enough to get close enough to live in intimacy with them.

    This sort of relationship intentionally reflects the inner life of the Trinity, where the three persons of the divine Oneness completely love and trust each other. Unfortunately, in human relationships, sometimes the sin which colors any relationship mars the trust which maybe once defined a relationship. The love might be there, but in such a case the trust has been damaged. This should, however, be seen as a weird, suspended state of a broken relationship, with the goal to be restoring the trust which makes the loving relationships whole again. The model for this is Jesus, who loved us so much he won our trust in him.
