Love God Love Others

I f we love God we will love others.  The Apostle Paul said he was compelled by the love of Christ.

Hudson Taylor the missionary to China, was asked "Should loving people be the prerequisite for being a missionary?" "No" he said.  "The main prerequisite to being a missionary is to love God, then the loving of people will come. If you love God,  whether the people hate you and throw tomatoes, or sing your praises,  the missionary will better remain faithful."

"Hey Jesus. What's the greatest commandment?"
"That you love God with all of your heart, mind and soul. The second, is to love your neighbor like you love yourself."

Jesus challenges us to step up our game and said one time ; "Love your enemies! Do good to them! and don't worry if they can't repay you."

For God so loved the word that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

They were told and I believe we were to; "When you have done it to the least of these you have done it to me."
