Jesus is asked a “greatest” question – “What’s the most important commandment?” His answer gets to the core of what matters most for anyone, and especially for anyone who is his disciple. God commands us to love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. The Christian life is a response of love to the God who loved us first.
