Reply joseph on August 7, 2006 at 1:08 AM Hmmmm… as well. There are different ideas of loyalty floating around in my mind. Political, military, familial, canine… Is loyalty a Christian virtue? I suppose it can become one if the ground is love. Reply Shawn Branch on August 7, 2006 at 1:20 AM Good question Joseph. As Christians our first loyalty should be to God. But does that make it a virtue? Reply Bonnie Hunt on August 7, 2006 at 1:32 AM I guess first you would have to define what a virtue was. What about people who are loyal to others who don’t deserve it? ( ie in abuse situation) How do explain loyalty to them? Reply Submit a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
