Mark 12:28-34
The greatest commandment
28 One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, ‘Of all the commandments, which is the most important?’
29 ‘The most important one,’ answered Jesus, ‘is this: “Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is one.[a] 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.”[b] 31 The second is this: “Love your neighbour as yourself.”[c]There is no commandment greater than these.’
32 ‘Well said, teacher,’ the man replied. ‘You are right in saying that God is one and there is no other but him. 33 To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbour as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.’
34 When Jesus saw that he had answered wisely, he said to him, ‘You are not far from the kingdom of God.’ And from then on no one dared ask him any more questions.
Also reference: Matthew 25:40
40 ‘The King will reply, “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”

CHRISTMAS AID SCHEME 2024
NEWTOWNABBEY METHODIST MISSION
Christmas is fast approaching but for some families this is a very stressful time as they worry about how they will provide for their family. In recent years this has been increasingly difficult for many families due to the increased cost of living expenses. We at Newtownabbey Methodist Mission contact various agencies and invite them to send in referrals for the families who they know would benefit greatly from our help. We are able to provide assistance to referred families living in the BT36, BT37, ВТ38, BT39 postcode areas.
Our church family in Mossley Methodist will be continuing our annual support and receiving donations for this Christmas Appeal at our Sunday morning service on 1st of December 2024.
