Matthew 22:36-39:
36 “Instructor, which is the good commandment within the legislation?” 37 And he mentioned to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all of your coronary heart, and with all of your soul, and with all of your thoughts. 38 That is the good and first commandment. 39 And a second is prefer it, You shall love your neighbor as your self.
Mark 12:28-31:
28 One of many academics of the legislation got here and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a superb reply, he requested him, “Of all of the commandments, which is an important?” 29 “An important one,” answered Jesus, “is that this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.[a] 30 Love the Lord your God with all of your coronary heart and with all of your soul and with all of your thoughts and with all of your energy.'[b] 31 The second is that this: ‘Love your neighbor as your self.'[c] There isn’t a commandment higher than these.”
Galatians 5:13-15:
13 For you have been known as to freedom, brethren; solely don’t use your freedom as a possibility for the flesh, however by love be servants of each other. 14 For the entire legislation is fulfilled in a single phrase, “You shall love your neighbor as your self.” 15 However in the event you chew and devour each other take heed that you’re not consumed by each other.
As you may see, “household” doesn’t enter into it, nor Vance’s bigger concentric idea. I don’t know whether or not Vance is ignorant or heretical; contemplating the travesty that “family-friendly”/”household values” conservatives have product of Christianity, I believe the latter.
