FOOTPRINTS OF JESUS, 5. LOVE

Jesus loved us enough to come down from heaven to die in our place on the Cross. He told the Pharisees that the greatest commandment is, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind, and thy neighbor as thyself" (Luke 10:27). John tells us, "If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us" (1 John 4:12). We follow the steps of Jesus when we love God and our fellowmen.
