Recap: Loving God and Neighbours


As we have previously discussed that


(1) Loving God and Neighbours: Those who love God, love their neighbours as themselves, and love their neighbours as themselves, love God as well. On the judgement day they will be found righteous in God’s eyes.

It is essential to love self-soul to love God and Neighbours as themselves. If someone loves something, maintain its cleanliness and thus, keep it decorated. Similarly, those who love their soul, maintain its holiness and thus keep it decorated. Thus, such people successfully manage to love God and their neighbours as themselves. Therefore, loving self-soul is essential, as written in scripture:

everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made. (Isaiah 43:7, NIV)


(2) Neither Loving God Nor Neighbours: Those who do not love God, do not love their neighbours, and those who do not love their neighbours, do not love God. So, whom do they love? On the judgement day they will be found unrighteous in God’s eyes.

Such people love their mortal body. This fills their soul with selfishness, pride, pretence, enviousness, greed, anger, lust, adultery, and so on, meaning their soul is filled with evil spirit in the ratio they are under the influence of their bodily lust. Such people instil selfishness, pride, pretence, envy, greed, anger, lust, adultery, and so on in their mind and bow at them. Such idols are intangible and invisible, yet those who love their mortal body, adore these intangible and invisible idols residing in their mind. As written in scripture:

For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them. (Luke 12:30, NIV)


Instilling of Intangible Idol in Mind:


Those who love their mortal body, adore intangible and invisible idol instilled in their mind. Therefore, they can’t love God and their neighbours. Until someone decide to love their soul, they will continue to love their mortal body, meaning they will be burdened with worldly worries.


A Sacred Call to Action:


Life on earth is fleeting in nature, therefore, we must decide today itself to love our soul, to timely love our neighbour, as stated in scripture:

“God is Love.” (1 John 4:8, NIV)


Worship: What is Instilled in Mind


Worshiping love, which is God, is possible only when love is instilled in the mind; otherwise, anything other than love (which is the standard of measure on Judgment Day) – intangible and unseen idols – is prohibited and restricted, just as trespassing is prohibited
