Read the Story

Someone asked Jesus a question. "Which is the greatest commandment?"

Jesus said to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind. He said this is the first and great commandment.

Jesus said the second is like it. Love your neighbor as yourself. These two commands are the most important of all!

Memory Verse

“A second likewise is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’”

Matthew 22:39 (WEB)
