Hi folks,
This week at d-church we have been reflecting on love, and as part of our evening we had a look at this passage from
Jesus said, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence.’ This is the most important, the first on any list. But there is a second to set alongside it: ‘Love others as well as you love yourself.’ These two commands are pegs; everything in God’s Law and the Prophets hangs from them.”
Matthew 22:37-40
The Message
I love this passage it’s one of my favourites, I love looking at different versions of the bible and how they describe things… this is interesting comparing it with the NIV when it describes as we should love God with all our – heart, soul and mind… In the message version… what does it mean to love God with your passion? Prayer? And intelligence? How do these differ from the NIV?
Cheers
