what duties we owe to our neighbour (Matt. 22;39).
Deut. 4;13.—And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.—Matt.22;40.—Deut. 10;3, 4.
Matt. 22;37, 38.—Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment.—Mark 12;30.
Matt. 22;39.—And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.—Mark 12;31.
*94. What doth God enjoin in the first command?
That I, as sincerely as I desire the salvation of my own soul, avoid and flee from all idolatry, sorcery, soothsaying, superstition, invocation of saints, or any other creatures (1 Cor. 6;9, 10); and learn rightly to know the only true God, trust in him alone (John 17;3); with humility and patience submit to him, expect all good things from him only (1 Pet. 5;5); love, fear, and glorify him with my whole heart (Deut. 6;5); so that I renounce and forsake all creatures, rather than commit even the least thing contrary to his will (Matt. 10;37).
1 Cor. 6;9, 10.—Neither fornicators nor idolaters shall inherit the kingdom of God.—1 Cor. 10;14.—Lev. 19;31.—Deut. 18;10-12.—Rev. 19;10.—Matt. 4;10.—Matt. 4;16.
