Meditating
on the Scriptures Together
1
John 4:7-8
[7] Beloved, let us
love one another,
for love is from
God,
and whoever loves
has been born of God
and knows God.
[8] Anyone who does
not love
does not know God,
because God is love.
Matthew
5:17-20
[17] Do not think
that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come
to abolish them but to fulfill them. [18] For truly, I say to you,
until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass
from the Law until all is accomplished. [19] Therefore whoever
relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to
do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but
whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the
kingdom of heaven. [20] For I tell you, unless your righteousness
exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the
kingdom of heaven.
