Book Description
"The book is titled "The Greatest Commandment", since it is the most important point of the book. (John 5:41-42) If you Love the Lord your God with all your Heart, Mind, Soul, then why is there a second law? The second law really displays the same principles as the first. This is why the first commandment is the greatest or most clear description of what God calls us to do. God is a Creator, and the law is a representation of how he builds. How do you Love the Lord your God with all your Soul, Heart, and Mind? Master the second law and the first law will become clearer. The photo on the cover is symbolic to the laws by which we are governed, just like scriptures state that the law is the cornerstone of government. Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God's people and members of God's household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. (Ephesians 2:19-20) For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. (Isaiah 9:6)"--Back cover.

Book Description
When asked what he believed was the most important command God ever issued, Jesus replied, "The most important command is this. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength. The second command is this: Love your neighbor as you love yourself. There are no commands more important than these" (Mark 12:29-31 NCV). These two commands form the foundation of Christianity, yet Jesus himself is the only person to ever keep them completely. In The Greatest Commands: Learning to Love like Jesus, author Scott Bayles delves deeply into the life and love of Jesus in an attempt to draw closer to the heart of Christ and discover the true meaning of loving God and loving people. Scott Bayles is a graduate of Freed-Hardeman University and the preaching minister for First Christian Church in Rosiclare, Illinois, where he lives with his wife Ashley and their two children-Yeshua and Sarai. He loves God and loves the people that God has put in his life.

Book Description
"Someone once noted that God made us in His image, and ever since we have tried to do God a favor by making Him in our image." It’s easy to speak to others about the Jesus who cared for the poor, healed the sick, and preached love and justice for the least of these. But what about the God who tells the Israelites to wage war and kill entire people groups? Or threatens exile and then delivers? Or sends people to hell? Can these really be the same God? The simple answer is, yes. God in His Own Image takes you on a journey through the Bible exploring God’s true nature. You’ll study instances of great mercy and great severity, and by the end, you’ll begin to see why both God’s compassion and his wrath are necessary, important, and even beautiful. Get to know the God who is both Lion and Lamb, both Judge and Father, both kind and severe, and perfect in every way.
