7/10/22 - The Great Commandment - Matthew 22:34-40 - Pastor Scott Martin

What if you could directly ask Jesus one question, face to face, right now? What would it be? My guess is an overwhelming amount of people might ask Him, why am I here, or what am I supposed to do? There is an instance in Scripture where a man comes and asks Jesus a question like this. His goal was actually to discredit Jesus, as he didn't believe He was the Messiah. But, in typical Jesus fashion, He gave this questioning lawyer more than he bargained for. Just a few simple directions. These simple directions have made their way into almost every Bible-believing church that exists, but perhaps the most difficult aspect of these truths is how to put them into practice. This Sunday, we jump a bit ahead of Genesis for a moment and walk through the direct words of Jesus. As a church family, let’s look into the teachings of Jesus, the Great Commandment, and ask ourselves do we have these commands written on our hearts? Bring a friend, let’s explore collectively.
