[FedUpWithIt All]

This passage is another good one...

Mark 12:30And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

31And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

The fruits of the spirit of God are

* love;
* joy;
* peace;
* patience;
* kindness;
* goodness;
* faithfulness;
* gentleness;
* self-control.

It says we will know "God" in man by these things.

The Bible also says the Kindom of God is within us.

Luke 17:20: Jesus said:

The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

With these things in mind, the former passage...

Mark 12:30And thou shalt love the Lord thy God (God is... love; joy; peace; patience; kindness; goodness; faithfulness; gentleness; self-control)with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

31And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

takes on a much richer meaning.
