Episode 09 - Love Thy Neighbor (Matthew 22: 34 - 40)

On this weeks episode of Faith, Craig Dickerson and I discuss Matthew 22: 34-40. Here are some bullet points on the show: - First commandment: love God (easy). 2nd Commandment: love thy neighbor (hard) - Sometimes we must limit our emotions to effectively help others - Analogy of the heavy curtain (God’s Word) and the weak wall (our acceptance of the word) - The lessons we learn from our parents or grandparents may be simple but it’s our foundation. If we stray too far, we lose our foundation and our identity. - Others will try to provoke you (like the Pharises). Don’t let them. - The ONLY way to love God is to love your neighbor, even those you don’t want to be around
