"THE GREAT COMMANDMENT"

Master: Which is the great Commandment of the Law?
Jesus answered: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all
your soul, and with all your mind.”
This is the first and great Commandment. And the second is just like it:
“Love your neighbor as you love yourself.” On these two Commandments,
hang all the Law and the Prophets. Mathew 22. 36 to 40.
The first one requires all we are! Our whole being!
A complete heart, mind and soul, not a divided one!
The second one, it’s to share with others the love we feel for ourselves!
I don’t understand!
All right! Look: GOD IS A JEALOUS GOD!
“You should not have other gods before me” You should not make for you
any image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above or that is in
earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you should not bow
down yourself to them, nor serve them; for I the Lord your God
Am a jealous God. Exodus 20:3 to 5.
As you can see, God does not want to share your love with any other “gods”.
I still don’t understand! All right, do you believe the Bible is the Truth?
Yes! I do!
Then, let me to ask you another question: Who are greater, saints or angels?
I believe angels, why?
Listen: Saint Paul in Revelation said:
And I fell at the feet of the angel to worship him and he said to me:
Don’t do it! I am your fellow servant and your brethren that have the
Testimony of Jesus, worship God: Revelation 19:10.
What do you think Saint Peter along with all the Virgins and Saints would
say if they see you on your knees trying to worship them? Of course!
The same as the angel: Don’t do it! Worship God!
Listen:
Satan tempting Jesus took Him to a high mountain and told Him:
If you fall down and worship me, I will give you all these kingdoms!
And Jesus answered to him: Get out of here Satan, because it is written:
You should worship the Lord your God and only Him you should serve.
Mathew 4 : 8 to 10.
While Jesus was preaching a woman in the crowd shouted out:
“Blessed be the womb that bared thee and the breasts you sucked.”
But Jesus said: Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the Word of God
and keep it! Luke 11: 27 and 28.

PRAISE THE LORD!
