MOST IMPORTANT
Mark 12-13

"...Of all the commandments, which is the most important? Jesus replied, The most important commandment is this: Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is the one and only Lord!" Mark 12:28-29 NLT

The most important commandment is also the commandment that makes it possible for us to keep the other commandments. Ever thought about that?

If we accept that the Lord is God, we will not take His name lightly, in vain or use it flippantly as some do in vulgar speech.

If we know, in our hearts, that the Lord is God, it will cause us to honor and worship Him alone, no other gods will hold that place in our hearts.

If we accept that the Lord is God, we will believe He is the Creator and by His example and command we are to keep a day of rest set apart for Him.

If we honor God as Lord, it will show in the honor and respect we show others, like towards our parents.

If we live the command that the Lord is God it will reach out and touch the people we live around by how we interact with them--and He knew that!
