    Loving God & Loving People

    Contributed by Matt Skiles on Jul 24, 2023
     | 2,000 views

    It is important to really focus on the question that Jesus was asked. "Which is the great commandment in the law?" Jesus said, “Love God. Love your neighbor.” He then states that all the law hangs on these two commandments.

    Matthew 22:34-40-“But when the Pharisees heard that He had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. 35 Then one of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, and saying, 36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?” 37 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the LORD your God ...read more

    This sermon explores Jesus' response to the question about the greatest commandment, emphasizing the importance of loving God and one's neighbor, and how these two commandments encapsulate all others.

    The occasion and context: A Jewish expert on the Torah—the Law—asked Jesus which was the most important commandment, and at the time there were a lot to choose from… The Ten Commandments, of course, which we’ve all heard of before. But also, people just like this man—they were called Scribes—had ...read more

    John is often called the beloved or is referred to in the Scripture as "that disciple whom Jesus loved." What was it that made him different from the rest? Can we be like him?

In this instance we find him at the last supper sitting next to Christ leaning upon his pillow as was customary, ...read more

    We love immoral people by holding on to what we believe and sympathizing with the weaknesses of others because we know what our weaknesses are.

    Jesus says the most important command of God for us to obey is this, “To love God with all our heart, soul, strength and mind and to love others.” So for the last few weeks we’ve taken some time to define what this kind of love is. We can summarize our last few lessons this way, ...read more
