Greatest Commandments

The greatest commandment. Matt ch23V34-40. The Pharisees tried to trick Jesus by asking what the greatest commandment was. Looking back, God gave us the commandments as a way to live properly, and to show our need for Him, as it was impossible to keep the law! Jesus' response is loving God, then others. If we truly love, would we ever want to disappoint or do wrong to God? What about others? God loves them too, yet we judge others all the time. So Jesus sums up the entire law and words of the prophets in two commands, love God, and love others as yourself. Easy right? So, how do we love? Tough love? Mushy love? Soft love? Love could mean sacrificing self, serving another, putting their needs and desires ahead of our own. Try it and see how it works for ya!
