Dear John: I think Robert misspoke a little bit. He did not mean to say that keeping those two commandments would get us into heaven. Did you Robert? Let's agree that we could not keep the commandments, no matter how God broke them down and spelled them out for us. So Jesus came and died and paid for our sins. We repented and trusted in him, so we are saved. We are on our way to heaven. Now, what happens after that? The love of God has been shed abroad in our hearts. We are able to love God. We are able to love our brothers. Let us do it, not in order to be saved, but because we are saved. Let us love him because he first loved us. And beloved, let us love one another. We can do it. It is a little child who needs to be told, "Don't hit your brother", "Don't push", "Hold his hand". A mature person hears "Love one another" and that's enough. Now, a mature brother has immature brothers and that makes the job harder. But we can do it. |

Hi Ajxen7z4 This is a belated "Thank you" for having come to my rescue.I would have thought that by the manner and fashion I spelt out my comment especially in connection with the 2 commandments under discussion, it was obvious that I was in a zestful mood and my mind at that time was wishful too. However, I now realised that I had inadvertenly caused a couple of persons to feel hot in the collar though to cause unpleasantness was never in my mind.Nevertheless, I tender herewith my apologies. By the way, what was in Jesus mind when He said "All the law and the prophets hang on to these two commandments" Mat.22:40 refers. With love in Christ. FytRobert |

Scripture ... Exo 20:1-17; Mat 22:35-40 ... Jesus had the Ten Commandments (Exo 20:1-17) in mind ... on which the rest of the Law and the prophets were based. Now He shows that these ten could be followed by two (Mat 22:35-40). |
