Gospel
Matthew 5:17-19
I have not come to abolish the Law and the Prophets but to complete them
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘Do not imagine that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have come not to abolish but to complete them. I tell you solemnly, till heaven and earth disappear, not one dot, not one little stroke, shall disappear from the Law until its purpose is achieved. Therefore, the man who infringes even one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be considered the least in the kingdom of heaven; but the man who keeps them and teaches them will be considered great in the kingdom of heaven.’
Reflection
If you look at the 10 commandments it is about laws on honouring God and respecting mankind. What Christ did was summarize it with the element of love. Love God Love Neighbour and love yourself. When the element of love come into play you will not things offending God or mankind. Do you believe in Loving God and mankind?
Let us pray
Lord Jesus be upon us so that we will always love God and love our Neighbor.
Amen
