Dear Friend in the Lord,
“Two Great Commandments” – Faith: In today’s Gospel, Jesus proclaimed, “You must love God with all your heart, soul and mind. . . And, you must love your neighbour as yourself.” Ponder on, “If we live both of these inseparable Commandments, we will receive God’s fullest Blessings, and we will witness the Good News of Jesus, with wisdom and great joy.”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Matthew 20:1-2, 8-13, 15-16
When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees they got together and, to disconcert him, one of them put a further question, ‘Master, which is the greatest commandment of the Law?’
Jesus said, ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second resembles it: You must love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law, and the Prophets also.’
