Love
Matthew 22:34-40
The Rev. Magrey deVega
Love is the chief distinguishing feature of a follower of Jesus. John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, wrote that a Christian is one for whom the “love of God has been shed abroad in their hearts.” And the Great Commandment from Matthew (and attested to in Mark and Luke) is Jesus' clearest example of what love looks like.
