Being devoted
(Quotations from The Bible)
- Jesus:
- He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them,
he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be
loved of my Father, and I will love him, and
will manifest myself to him.
(John 14:21)
- A lawyer:
- Master, which is the great
commandment in the law?
- Jesus:
- Thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all
thy mind. This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy
neighbour as thyself.
On these two commandments hang
all the law and the prophets.
(Matthew 22:35-40)
