Loving God

 In Deuteronomy 6:4-5, Moses said, “Hear, O Israel! The Lord is our God, the Lord is one! “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might.”  Quoting these words, Jesus Christ declared that loving God is the greatest commandment (Matt. 22:34-40; Mark 12:28- 34; Luke 10:25-29).

 Many parents are not raising godly children.  How do we teach our children to love God?  How do we communicate spiritual values from one generation to the next?

 Fulfilling the Great Commandment requires teaching (Deut. 6:7-9).  Duty of Moses (Deut. 5:22-33)  Duty of Priests (Deut. 33:8-11; cf. Ezek. 44:23)  Duty of Parents (Deut. 11:18-21; cf. Eph. 6:4; 2 Tim. 1:5; 3:14-17)

 Fulfilling the Great Commandment requires remembering (Deut. 6:10-12).  The people of God must not forget but remember  His Power & Provision (Deut. 7:17-19; 8:2, 18)  Their Former Servile & Sinful Condition (Deut. 5:15; 15:15; 24:18; 9:7-8; 24:8-9).

 Fulfilling the Great Commandment requires fearing (Deut. 6:13-16; cf. Eccl. 12:13-14).  Reverential fear is characteristic of the righteous (Gen. 22:9-13; 2 Cor. 6:14-7:1), but not of the wicked (Deut. 25:17-19; Ps. 36:1-4).

 Fearing God is the duty of commoners (Deut. 10:12-13, 20-21) and kings (Deut. 17:14-20).  It is communicated through precepts (Deut. 6:1-2, 24), sacrifices (Deut. 14:22-27), and feasts (Deut. 31:9-13).

 Fulfilling the Great Commandment requires obeying (Deut. 6:17-19).  The necessity of obedience is repeatedly affirmed in the Mosaic Dispensation (Deut. 4:1-2; 7:11; 8:6; 11:1, 13-14, 22-23) and also in the Gospel Age (John 14:15, 21, 23; 15:10; 1 John 5:3; 2 John 6).

 Fulfilling the Great Commandment requires repeating (Deut. 6:20-25).  God’s mighty works and word must be continually retold (Exod. 12:23-27; 13:14-16; Josh. 4:1-7; 1 Sam. 7:12-13).  Negligence yields disastrous and fatal consequences (Judg. 2:6-10; 1 Sam. 2:12-17, 22-25; Jer. 9:1-3).
