What is the most important commandment? |
|
|
|
""Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?"
Jesus said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and all your mind." This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' On these two commandments hang all the Law and the prophets."
- Matthew 22:36-39 |
|
|
What's so important about love? People who I see that "love" a lot are weak and usually a bit weird. Is love really important? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Well, if love's so important, what exactly IS love? The only experience I have with love was from Barney and cheesy movies. What is love, and what properties does it have? |
|
|
|
"And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing."
- Ephesians 3:2-3 |
|
|
|
|
" Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things."
- Ephesians 3:4-8 |
|
|
|
|
I don't care about love. Love can't last. You love something and you move on... Love and forget. If love is so good, then how long can love last? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Regarding everything, does Paul deem love the most important? |
|
|
|
"Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanquish away"
- Ephesians 3:8 |
|
|
|
|
"And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but greatest of these is love."
Ephesians 3:13 |
|
|
|
| So who do I love? I mean, I love my momma and pops, but frankly,some people aren't nice. Do i have to love everyone? |
|
|
Sometimes, I just feel some people don't deserve to be treated like other people because they don't treat them well. I should teach them a lesson right? |
|
"You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the injust."
- Matthew 5:43-45 |
|
|
|
|
"For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? DO not even the tax collectors do so? Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect."
- Matthew 5:46 |
|
|
" If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he had seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God, must love his brother also."
- 1 John 5:1-2 |
