Mat 22:36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
Mat 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
Mat 22:38 This is the first and great commandment.
Mat 22:39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
Mat 22:40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Upon love hang all the law and the prophets. The English Standard Bible translates the verb hang as "depend". In 1 Corinthians 12 and 13 The Bible speaks of the Spiritual gifts. They only are effective if they hang or depend on love as a motivation. Love is an attribute of God, and God has no sin, so love is without sin. The devil tries to make love to be sinful. The devil is a liar. True love is not selfish, love is kind and love rejoices in truth. Because love is from God it will be everlasting. I ask a question? If love is so important then why do we not love more? Love God and love others. Hold onto something that will last forever. God showed us his love by having his son come to take your sins away. Jesus paid the price for you to be free of sin and to be filled with love. Ask Jesus to be your salvation and to give you more love. The love and truth of God will make you free.
