    Message of the week:

The "Shema"

In Hebrew, Shema literally means "hear." It is found in Deuteronomy 6:4 -- "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one." It goes on to read, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength."

The devout Jew recites the Shema every morning and every evening. It is among the first teachings that a Jewish person learns to say, and it comprises the words uttered as they breathe their last breath. When saying the Shema, a person typically covers his or her eyes to shut out any distractions and to enhance focus on the meaning of the words.

When a lawyer, one of the Pharisees, trying to trip Jesus up, asked Him, "which is the great commandment in the law?"

Mat 22:37 Jesus said to him, 'YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.'

Mat 22:38 This is the first and great commandment.

Mat 22:39 And the second is like it: 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.'

Mat 22:40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets."

 

 

 In verse 37 Jesus quoted the Shema to him. Which is the first and great command-ment. But He went on to say, the second is like it, you shall love your neighbor as yourself.

If we call ourselves Christians, we must love everyone! We are not to love their sin but everyone means everyone. Black or white, red or yellow, Jew or Gentile! As Christians we are to love our brothers and sister in Christ especially. We are to be with one mind with Christ. The church is divided by doctrine and color, and that is not God's will for the Church.

I pray that the Holy Spirit work on each and every Christian heart and bring us into the unity of the Spirit.

"The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel." (Mark 1:15)

God Bless You All,
