The Heidelberg Diet (Week 4)

Q. What does God’s law require of us?

A. Christ teaches us this in a summary in Matthew 22: You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.1 This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it, You shall love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets.2

1 Deut 6:5. 2 Lev 19:18.
