love

i recently watched the NOOMA video called Bullhorn...and you will have to watch it to find out exactly why it is called bullhorn...but there were some good truths and verses in this one that i would like to share because they reminded me of some things that i had forgotten about/have never learned this way...so there are some quotes with some pictures that really have no connection.

"i mean, thats why so many of us are so fascinated with Jesus, because he never stops insisting that God, really, really loves us exactly as we are. I mean, isnt that what draws you to him?

"what draws you to the message of Jesus?"


"Teacher, what is the most important commandment in the Law?" Jesus answered:"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, sould, and mind.' This is the first and most important commandment. The second most important commandment is like this one. And it is, 'Love others as much as you love yourself.' All the Law of Moses and the Books of the Prophets are based on these two commandments." Matthew 22:36-40


"When Jesus is asked, "What is the most important thing? Jesus' response is to love, love God with everything you have and then love those around you in the same kind of way. Jesus doesent separate loving God and loving others. For Jesus, everything hangs on these two. And so the defining mark of a Christian is love."

"What is the most important thing in your life?"

"How does that line up with what Jesus said?"



"By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." John 13:35

"So a Christian is somebody who understands this, who understands that people with different perspectives and different religious beliefs and convictions, they're to be loved and respected, because they're made by God, and they're sacred and they're valuable and they matter. God loves the world..."

"So may you see that how you love others is how you love God.
That's it.
That's the way of love.
That's the way of Jesus."
