Subject: Why do i need to love god? |
Bible Note: Inquisitor, None of us deny that loving both God and man is important. Those are indeed the greatest two commandments. However, my concern comes from what I fear you might have been saying in your original post. The question is this: How do we receive the grace and salvation which Jesus Christ purchased for us? Your original post sounded like you were saying that we receive grace as a result of loving God/obeying Jesus' command to love. Can you and will you clearly deny such a belief so that we may not worry? In Christ, Beja |
