Christ teaches us this in summary in Matthew 22:37-40: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind, and with all your strength.”<sup>1</sup> This is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is like it: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”<sup>2</sup> On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.
