4. Q.

What does God's law require of us?
A.
Christ teaches us this in a summary in Matthew 22:
Love the Lord your God
with all your heart
and with all your soul
and with all your mind. 1
This is the first and greatest commandment.
And the second is like it:
Love your neighbour as yourself.
All the Law and the Prophets hang on these
two commandments. 2
  • 1. Deut 6:5.
  • 2. Lev 19:18.
5. Q.

Can you keep all this perfectly?

to hate God and my neighbour. 2
