<center></center> <center> Jesus Christ on the Mount</center><center>[Source of Image](http://www.jesuswalk.com/manifesto/0_intro.htm)</center> 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” 37 Jesus replied: **“‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’** 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: **‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”** **Matthew 22:36-40 NIV** The two greatest commandments to us. To Love God with all our hearts, minds and soul. To love each other like ourselves. Many people believe that in order to be a Christian, to follow Jesus Christ, one has to follow a lengthy set of rules, laws and regulations. ''They are just too many!'' ''It is too demanding!'' ''It is too restrictive!'' Yet this is a mistake. The rules we are called to follow are not many, nor demanding, nor restrictive. There are only two commandments for us. The commandments of **LOVE**. Through the commandments, the only things we are demanded is to love. And through love we find the **GRACE** of God. In these commandments, we find freedom. And we are FREE under God's protection. <center>And this is the greatest blessing we can receive.</center> <center>**God Bless!**</center> <center></center> <center></center>
