Question 4

What does God's law require of us?

Christ teaches us this in a summary in Matthew 22: You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.¹ This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it, You shall love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets.²

Deuteronomy 6:5 ^[1]
You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. (ESV)
Leviticus 19:18 ^[2]
You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the sons of your own people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the LORD. (ESV)
