Deuteronomy 26:16-19. Matthew 5:43-48

The Lord your God, Creator of all that is, Sustainer of all that He creates and Father of the sons of men commands one thing only from the children of His love. That is commitment and obedience to the law of love which issues from His very Being. To know and understand this law and to receive power to obey it each one alone and all together must seek My Presence in all relationships. So do I draw them to Myself and unite them with each other.

From such union and commitment spring good laws and customs. As all continue close to Me so are they guided into union with Me and service of their brothers and their sisters near and far. All who strive so to live are members of My Kingdom. Already in eternal life they are gradually but continually drawn into the fulness of My Presence in eternity.
