The first chapter is all about how we as a world have come up with many different ways of making our decisions, many, if not most, are not helpful, and in most cases not in God’s perfect will. In fact, throughout history people have been seeking the mind of God. Some ancient peoples thought that they could find out the mind of their god by looking at the liver. Some others in the ancient world consulted the stars. The Greece and Roman people consulted oracles, but as all these cultures found out, these were all wrong. One thing that has stuck around, and many Christians are close to practicing, is divination.

But what is love, our culture has lost the meaning of this word. It could mean so many things these days. Jesus said in the Aramaic that meant “good will”, so it means that we are to seek the ultimate good of other people. But our overall motivation is to do it because we love God.
