(ESV)\n\n A Pharisee, a lawyer, asked Jesus, ``Teacher, which is the\n great commandment of the Law?''\n And he said to him, ``You shall love the Lord your God\n with all your heart and with all your soul and with all\n your mind. This is the great and first commandment.\n And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor\n as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the\n Law and the Prophets.''\n\n\n On Monday I suggested that we can summarize Christianity\n with two questions. The first is: What is our condition as we\n compare ourselves to God's Law? Unfortunately, no one can say\n they have always loved God with their whole heart and soul and\n mind. We have failed, thus stand condemned. Likewise, no one\n has always, and in every circumstance, loved their neighbor with\n the same intensity and care with which we love ourselves.\n\n The law acts like a mirror, showing us our sin, showing us\n that we cannot, by our own works and desires, be reconciled to\n God. No matter how we try, in our hearts, in our souls, in our\n minds, we place ourselves above God and neighbor. Even if we are\n active in doing good works, there is always that selfish part\n which is sin.\n\n Fortunately, tomorrow and Friday we will look at the second\n question, ``Who is Jesus?'' In Him and because of His death and\n resurrection, we are forgiven, we stand perfect before God.\n\n May our Lord grant us wisdom to confess our sins to receive\n forgiveness for the sake of Christ Jesus. Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"October 22, 2025 Broadcast<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3932","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-turn-your-radio-on-2025"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3932","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3932"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3932\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3933,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3932\/revisions\/3933"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3932"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3932"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3932"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
