Matthew 22: 37And He said to him, "'YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.' 38"This is the great and foremost commandment. 39"The second is like it, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.'
Please note that Jesus spoke these words to Jews, before He had instituted the new covenant seal with His blood. Obeying the commandments does not get one Born from Above. The broken and contrite spirit in repentence comes to, and Believing on the One God sent to be Savior and Lord causes the 'born from above' phenomenon. THEN, with His Life placed in you by The Holy Spirit of Promise, you lvae God the Father and this leads to learning how and where and when and by what spirit, you love your neighbor as yourself. This learning process is a transformation process of being 'raised up in the Way that we should go' by the Power of the adopting Spirit of the Family.
When asked to say which is the greatest commandment, Jesus replied:
Matthew 22: 37And He said to him, “’YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.’ 38”This is the great and foremost commandment. 39”The second is like it, ‘YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.’
If we do not observe this commandment, if we do not love God, or do not love our neighbor, do we sin?
