Notes: 

WON’T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR?

By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life.

We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence. 

And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires.

WHO IS MY NEIGHBOR? Jim & Susie Smith – Daughter @ Frostburg – Susie’s Mom has Cancer

Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together. One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”

Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment.”

“And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

You can love your neighbor, and not love God. But it’s impossible to love God and not love your neighbor.

But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

I can’t avoid what Jesus assumes

“People are hard to hate close up. Move in.”

Stranger – Acquaintance - Friend

Know Their Name – Start Simple – Invite Them Into Your Life

From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. 

God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us.
