Jesus said that the greatest commandment was to love the Lord with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength. Jesus didn't speak this to an audience that didn't understand exactly what was meant. In scripture, we're told exactly what this looks like in action.

1. The heart of God was demonstrated when His Son was sent to the world for the redemption of people that hated Him.

2. The love of God is unique from the love of this world if for no other reason than the fact it lasts forever.

3. Understanding the love of God is founded on understanding the character of Jesus.
