« We love because he first loved us. » (1 John 4: 19)

37Jesus replied: “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38This is the first and greatest commandment. 39And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ (Matthew 22 : 37-39) From worship comes the mission. From the whole being of the believer, loved by God, springs love and praise for his Lord and Savior. Because he is loved by God and through his love (Romans 11: 36), the Christian can proclaim the gospel and offer the love of God to his neighbor so that he in turn will worship the Lord with all his heart, with all his soul and with all his mind.
