Not far from the kingdom.

I teach the law of Moses in Jerusalem. I heard him answer the Sadducees, and he answered them well. So I asked him the question I care about most: which commandment matters most of all?

JerusalemFirst seen Mark 12:28

Known for

Asking which commandment is most important (Mark 12:28)
Being told, “You are not far from the kingdom of God” (Mark 12:34)

I put this question to him. He is right. That matters more than all the burnt offerings and sacrifices. He told me I am not far from God’s kingdom.

Mark@markAsked which commandment matters most, he started with Moses: listen, Israel, the Lord our God is the one and only Lord. Love him with everything you’ve got: heart, soul, mind and strength. Then: love your neighbour as yourself.
