ABSTRACT
The object of the Christian life is to know, love and serve God. In fact Jesus made it clear that the heart of faith is love.
But when the Pharisees heard that He had silenced the Sadducees they got together and, to disconcert him, one of them put a question, ‘Master, which is the greatest commandment of the Law?’ Jesus said ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second resembles it: You must love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law and the Prophets also.’
(Matt. 22:34–40)
