Which requires a simple yes or no answer; scripture says 'let your yes be yes, and your no be no.' (Although, shame on me, I have forgotten where this verse is.)
Our Lord Jesus said:
"And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength."
Mark: 12.30.
This kind of love means too love in the real sense of that word 'love.' Which is very different from human love. It is 'Christ Love.' This kind of love; to love with all you have, is an extremely intense love. It is second by second love; minute by minute; hour by hour; day by day; week by week; month by month, year by year, year in and year out.
So, remembering that we our 'human,' answer the following question with a yes or a no; with no explanation. Be honest, and remember we are human with all the failings that go with our species.
Question:
Can you love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength."
Second by second; minute by minute; hour by hour; day by day; week by week; month by month, year by year, year in and year out?
