The love of God and love of neighbour - in such a way that to love God without necessarily mean that one ought to love one's neighbour. In short, love of neighbour is the fruit of one's love for God.
However, the commandment that one should love God and neighbour is not revolutionary. In fact, to talk about love is perhaps redundant. Why?
This is because we are by nature lovers. God create us with love and in love. It is natural that the creature should show the characteristic or features of the Creator. God is love and so are we, created loving.
The challenge we face is how to define love. But love is to be more than lust, it may be passionate but it is more, and love in actions means that we often love even when not feeling it, but if we fail to love then it is an indication that we ought to pray even more to discover and fall in love with God.

Why do you call Me, "Lord, Lord" and not do what I say?' "Everyone who comes to Me and listens to My words and acts on them - I will show you what he/she is like. He/She is like a man/woman who when he/she built his/her house dug, deep, and laid the foundations on rock; when the river was in flood it bore down on that house but could not shake it, it was so well built. But the one who listens and does nothing is like the man/woman who built his/her house on soil, with no foundations: as soon as the river bore down on it, it collapsed; and what a ruin that house became!" - Luke 6:46-49 -
If we live by the truth and in love, we shall grow in all ways into Christ Jesus, who is the head by whom the whole body is fitted and joined together, every joint adding its own strength, for each separate part to work according to it function. So the body grows until it has built itself up, in love." - Ephesians 4:15-16 -
I still have many things to say to you but they would be too much for you now. But when the spirit of truth comes, he will lead you to the complete truth, since he will not be speaking as from himself, but will say only what he has learnt; and he will tell you of the things to come. He/She will glorify me, since all he/she tells you will be taken from what is mine. Everything the Father has is mine; that is why I said: all he/she tells you will be taken from what is mine." - John 16:12-15 -
Your generous contribution and support is profoundly cherish. I sincerely pray that: God blessing be upon you, always. Amen! Bank transfer: Name: Alex Chan Kok Wah - Public Bank Berhad account no. 4076577113 - Country: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
