THE GREAT COMMANDMENT -Matthew 22:26
THE TRUTH BEHIND THE SCRIPTURE
The Law and the Prophets "hang" or depend on these two commandments, love God and love your neighbor. This is made crystal clear in 1 Corinthians 13. In verse 2, it is made perfectly clear how important love of God and our neighbor has to be to everyone. "And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity [love], I am nothing. "
Our love for God and mankind does not replace or do away with the Law or the Prophets.
