Answer by Lion Sack
Mortality is a probationary time to enable man to repent and serve God—The fall brought temporal and spiritual death upon all mankind—Redemption comes through repentance—God himself atoneth for the sins of the world—Mercy is for those who repent—All others are subject to God’s justice—Mercy cometh because of the atonement—Only the truly penitent are saved.

Since God is true love, love comes from him.

Answer by joe
yes teacher i will do my homework for you….because god is in everyone, because god gave eveyone life, because without loving god we do not love ourselves and cannot therefore love our neighbout (speaking from a religious perspective of course, athiests would say they love themselves without loving god. for me loving god gives us inner strenght.) in the trinity each person loves each other, if we love god we can use this example,——–hope that is a help

John 4:9-11 (New International Version)
9This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son[a] into the world that we might live through him. 10This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for[b] our sins. 11Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

I do believe if every person truly believed in God, this idea of loving thy neighbor would be applied. I know if ti was, we would have a much more peaceful world. Because, when we lean we understand, when we understand we accept, when we accept we love, and when we love we create harmony. Tell me, why isn’t it applied? Maybe the hatred and prejudice that echoes in religious language would be much kinder and caring if people would simply follow this rule and make efforts to overcome the judgment. This is the greatest hypocrisy when people say the accept and love god, but yet cast judgment upon others

Answer by S S
Your love for you neighbor is the “real” measure of your love for your God. Fanatics of all religion claim to love their god while they practice hate towards others…….that is not from God.
Irrespective of your faith or religion, if it does not teach you love, then it is not from God.

Good question! “Knowledge is merely pieces of the puzzle, understanding is the puzzle itself.”

If we love the Lord God with all our heart, soul and mind, loving our neighbor is the natural result. Think of it this way, you can have $ 10.00, but it doesn’t make $ 100.00; however, if you have $ 100.00, you will obviously have $ 10.00.
