The Greatest Commandment
Preacher: Josh Stringer Series: The Gospel of Mark Scripture: Mark 12:28–34
Discover what Jesus identified as the most important commandments in Christianity. In this powerful message on Mark 12:28-34, we explore Jesus' answer when asked about the greatest commandment. Rather than giving just one, Jesus provided two inseparable commands: love God completely and love your neighbor selflessly. Learn what it means to love God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and how this comprehensive devotion affects every aspect of life. Understand how Jesus expanded the concept of 'neighbor' to include everyone we encounter, even enemies, and what selfless love looks like in practice. This message unpacks why these commandments summarize the entire Old Testament and why intellectual agreement with these principles isn't enough for salvation. Discover how receiving God's love through Christ enables us to fulfill these commandments in ways we never could on our own. Perfect for anyone seeking to understand the core of Christian faith, struggling with relationships, or wanting to deepen their love for God.
