The First Commandment
Podcasts > Faith Answers with Gary Roy
Sunday, August 30, 2026
In this episode of Faith Answers, Pastor Gary Roy teaches from Mark 12 on Jesus’ answer to the scribe who asked, “Which is the first commandment of all?” Jesus replies that the greatest commandment is to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and the second is like it—love your neighbor as yourself. Pastor Gary explains that true love for God flows from His first love for us at the cross and is only possible through the new birth. He challenges listeners to move beyond rule-keeping religion into a living relationship of wholehearted love for God that overflows into genuine love for others.
This message includes a clear gospel invitation and a call to let God’s love transform how we live and witness.
