39 Method = Way Religion as System of Beliefs or Way of Life?
40 What is the Christian way of life?
41 What is the one greatest commandment? You shall have the correct beliefs system! (not)
42 What is the one greatest commandment? Love and the second is equally important
43 Jesus Paul John James
44 Love 101: neighbor stranger outsider/outcast enemy
45 Love 201: self not selfish not self-hating
46 Love 301: the earth all creation for neighbors & self for God s sake
47 Love 401: God
48 People who are learning to love their neighbors, themselves and the earth will not find it hard to learn to love God, because God will not be for them a doctrine or theory separate from or inconsistent with what they already love. Rather, in their experience of love for neighbor, self and creation, they will already have experienced God, because, as Richard Rohr says, God is an event of communion. 11 They will already have come, as the Quakers say, to love and reverence that of God in every one. So in Love 401, people learn to recognize and love the familiar light they see radiant in everything they already love. They learn to inhabit God as the loving reality in which they live and move and have their being, the allencompassing event of communion in which they have experienced countless events of communion. Each experience of love itself, they will realize, has been an experience of God, for, as John said in the New Testament, Love is from God; everyone who loves is born of God and knows God for God is love (1 John 4:7 8).
49 Yes, loving a distant and theoretical God who must be approached through complex belief systems can indeed be tough even exhausting, mentally and emotionally. But loving the God who is experienced in love for neighbor, self and creation comes as naturally as breathing. A character from Dostoevsky s The Brothers Karamazov captures it perfectly:
50 Love all of God s creation, both the whole of it and every grain of sand. Love every leaf, every ray of God s light. Love animals, love plants, love each thing. If you love each thing, you will perceive the mystery of God in things. Once you have perceived it, you will begin tirelessly to perceive more and more of it every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an entire, universal love.
51 love God know know creation LOVE CYCLE love people love know know self love Love can only begin from knowing God, as love comes from God. As we live out the mandate of loving others, self and creation,
