The Great Command and the Great Commission

THE GREAT COMMAND
And He said to him, “‘YOU SHOULD LOVE THE
LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL OF YOUR HEART,
AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL
YOUR MIND.’ This is the great and foremost
commandment. The second is like it’s YOU
SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.’
On these two commandments depend the
whole Law and the Prophets.”
— Matthew 22:37-40

THE GREAT COMMISSION
And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying,
“All authority has been given to Me in heaven
and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples
of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the
Father, and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching
them to observe all that I commanded you;
and lo, I am with you always, even to the end
of the age.”
— Matthew 28:18-20
