As noted previously, radical love is defined as a love that is so extreme that it dissolves all kinds of boundaries, including those relating to gender and sexuality. Although God is constantly sending forth radical love in the act of creation, sin can be understood as our refusal to accept this radical love. That is, the condition of original sin encourages humans to build up existing boundaries and divisions, and refuse to dissolve them or tear them down. In this framework, Jesus Christ is the one who helps us to recover the radical love that we have rejected.
