BAD BARGAINING
Genesis 13:12-18
Bargaining is selfish, even bargaining with God. Jacob bargained with God. Jacob’s kinsfolk seem quite numerous. The real Christ-spirit yields all to the Father because it’s his, and trusts him to be a Father, without bargaining. The real Jesus-spirit in a man helps another because he’s needy. Then there comes an unbargained-for double reward: we are like God, and we open the way for him to be God in full to us and through us.
