The Greatest Commandments

Aug 24, 2025    Pastor Jim McCarty

In this sermon, Pastor Jim explores Mark 12, focusing on Jesus' response to a scribe's question about the most important commandment. Jesus identifies loving God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength as the greatest commandment, followed by loving your neighbor as yourself. These two commandments form the foundation from which all other laws and prophetic words flow. The sermon contrasts the authentic faith Jesus teaches with the hypocritical behavior of religious leaders who parade themselves before others while neglecting true compassion and genuine worship.
