[Paul the Apostle writes,] “Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption; but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.” (Galatians 6:7-8)
If a soul invests in selfish, surface concerns, then the soul stays entangled in self and in immediacy. On the other hand if a soul invests in Spirit, then the soul grows expansive, eternally beyond self into the things of God.
Mercy and justice are worked out in the life we live.
