One of the most famous passages of the Old Testament references lines that have been drawn by Yahweh and fall in pleasant places (Psalm 16:6). For the religious, these lines are boundaries within which we live, and as long as our beliefs and behavior are correct, we are living a successful “Christian life.” However, from a new covenant perspective, we no longer need lines that create boundaries, but rather lines that connect us by the Spirit to Yahweh and to one another.
