Luke
10
25 One
day an expert in religious law stood up to test Jesus by asking him
this question:
"Teacher,
what should I do to inherit eternal life?"
26 Jesus
replied, "What does the law of Moses say? How do you read it?"
27 The
man answered,
"'You
must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, all
your strength, and all your mind.'
And,
'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"*
28 "Right!"
Jesus told him. "Do this and you will live!"
Once again,
Jesus highlights the simplicity living as God would have us live.
It's all summed
up in 4 words...
Love God.
Love others.
I've talked
about this before, many times, over the almost 14 years I've been
writing this blog.
I don't think
we're any closer to seeing that thinking implemented in our fellow
Christians.
We're known for
a lot of things these days, most of which aren't good.
We somewhere
lost the moniker of “people who love” to “People who ________”
You fill in the
blank.
But the word
most non-Christians would NOT put in that blank is the word, love.
I hope I live
long enough to see that pendulum sling back to the point we are wonce
again known as “people who love”.
Who love God.
Who love others.
