N The two Great Commandment

Besides believing what Eternal God has revealed

We must keep his law

The 2 Great Commandments that contain the whole law of Eternal God are

1st you will love the Divine Lord Your God with your whole heart

With your whole soul

With your whole mind

And with your whole strength

2nd is you will love your neighbor as yourself

To love Eternal God

Our neighbor

And ourselves we must keep the Commandments of Eternal God

And the Roman Catholic Church

The Commandments of Eternal God are ten

1 I am the Lord your Eternal God

You will not have strange Eternal God before Me

2 You will not take the name of  the Divine Lord your Eternal God in vain

3 Remember to keep holy the Divine Lord’s day

4 Honor your father and your mother

5. You will not kill

6 You will not commit adultery

7 You will not steal

8 You will not bear false witness against your neighbor

Or Do not lie

9 You will not like your neighbor’s wife

10 You will not like your neighbor’s goods

From a place of salvation, we know that we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. I find it is not in the trying to be “good” but in the worship and deep closeness of loving God that we gain strength for each day. I review my day not to see if I was good enough but to thank God that I am able to do all things through Him who gives me strength. God bless!
