The Importance of Love for God

Love for God always develops into love for people it's the second greatest command that flows right out of the first and is just like it because you can't bless God with your mouth and then curse people made in his image out of that same mouth. Jesus was needling people by making a Samaritan and not a Jew the hero of that story because Samaritans were seen by the Jews as violent foreigners with the wrong religion. That was not a political statement that was a distinguishing between cultural Christianity privileged Christianity that has never missed a meal and that has never been exiled from one's home, says Jane.
