re: first confession post
I stated that there were two commnandments that were the most important and really the base for the rest. You asked why I replied the two that were the most important. (I also included the Seven Deadly Sins but we all know those)
Jesus was the one who said they were the most important, I didn't make that up
Matthew 22:36
{Jesus} Which is the greatest Commandment according to the Law and He said "You shall love the Lord, your God, with all of your heart and with all of your soul and with all of your mind. This is the First Commandment. And the second is like it, you shall love thy neighbor as yourself." On these two commandments depend all the law and prophets.
OT : I believe it's Ex:31:18 that says almost the same thing but obviously not Jesus speaking.
I could be off a verse or two but I remember the letters of Matthew in the NT.
