Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your - TopicsExpress



          

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and most important commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law and the Prophets. (Matthew 22:37-40) Love is an aspect of every law God requires us to obey, so that if we do not act in love, no work we do can conform to his standard. And what makes Gods standard even harder to meet is that our love must be for both God and neighbor. Unbelievers do not love God they are hostile to him. And as a result, they can never be motivated by love for God. In other words, they can never have the right motive. And because of this, they can never do anything that God considers, in an ultimate sense, to be good.
