" THE WHOLE LAW CAN BE SUMMED UP in this one command. LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF!"
The Lord gave us 10 commandments and His Word in order to provide a manual for our lives!
We are to learn from His prophets and the Old and New Testament, His Word! There is an abundance of wisdom and understanding in His Living Word. The One Truth Today tells us that all of THE WHOLE LAW CAN BE SUMMED UP in this one Command. LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF. The depth of that one scripture is endless. We know that the Bible is without error and the Truth contained therein can be relied on. That is why it is so important for us to understand what God is trying to tell us in this scripture.
Is it possible that all of the laws regarding human relationships can be found in this one command of God? If we comply with the precepts in this one command, is all of His Law truly full filled? If you do this will you be in God's will, and pleasing to Him? We are told to LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF. In other words, treat people the way you want to be treated. Give the same care and concern to others that you desire for yourself. You can not hate your neighbor and love yourself. You can not ignore your neighbor and hide from their needs and wants, because they are yours. Will you help the sick, go to the prison, give to those that ask and are in need? Will you give of yourself because you love others? THE LAW CAN BE SUMMED UP IN THIS ONE COMMAND. LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF!
How do you treat your parents. How do you treat your children. How do you treat your brothers and sisters. How do you treat those around you, such as your next door neighbor?
What do you do for your schools, your city, your country, and your church. The truth is that everyone is our neighbor, how are treating them? This is a command of God, not a suggestion.
LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF! How do you treat people of other religions, races and genders? How do you treat people that are not like you but different? Do you treat them the way your want to be treated? Do you LOVE YOUR NEIGHBORS AS YOURSELF?
