Jesus replied: “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Matthew 22:37-40
Citizens of the New Kingdom seek to love God firstly and completely. King Jesus was asked what was the greatest commandment. Not only did he talked about loving God he also made sure his listeners knew that the responsibility of loving our neighbors is also a command of God.
Citizens of the New Kingdom know that we cannot show love to God and treat others with hatred and contempt. Our King encourages us to make things right with our brothers and sisters before we offer gifts to God.
Let us strive daily to love God and show love to others.
