Importance of <strong>Relationships</strong><br />
The Bible ranks relationships as the most<br />
important thing in life. When a Jewish lawyer asked<br />
Jesus, “Teacher, which is the greatest<br />
commandment in the Law?” Jesus replied, “You shall<br />
love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all<br />
your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first<br />
and great commandment. The second is like it, ‘You<br />
shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two<br />
commandments depend the whole Law and the<br />
Prophets.” Matthew 22:36:40. A loving relationship<br />
with God is of greatest importance; but loving<br />
relationships with others is second. The Bible is all<br />
about these two important relationships.<br />
Being in a Church community reminds every one<br />
of the value of loving relationships. People get<br />
opportunities to fellowship and extend their hands<br />
of love to serve others as: Pastors, Associate<br />
Pastors, Ministers, Evangelists, Ushers, Deacons,<br />
Nurses, Missionaries, Christian Educators, Sunday<br />
