The Great Power in the Commandments of the Law of God. New Post by Damián Alvarez

They are Mandates, They are Law, They are from God. The Great Power

The Great Power in the Commandments of the Law of God
(they are Mandates, they are Law, they are from God)

Jesus Christ refers to the Ten Commandments of God's law when a young man asks him how to get eternal life: "Teacher, what good must I do to get eternal life?" Jesus replies: "If you want to enter into life, keep the commandments." And he quotes to his interlocutor the precepts that refer to love of neighbor: "You shall not kill, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not raise false witness, honor your father and your mother." Finally, Jesus sums up these commandments in a positive way: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself" (Mt 19, 16-19).

 Human beings can consciously direct their own love energies towards other beings of creation, not only connecting themselves with the loved one but also connecting to God, creating a perpetual, eternal, you see, chain of love, between all the creation.  The "chain of love" would always have at least three links: God, yourself, and the person you love. In other words, it could be said that  when you love, you connect the loved one to the heart of God via your own heart.  When you love you live, when you love you express your true self in creation, when you love you are "one" with God and the whole universe, and in that state it is impossible to get sick, in that state it is impossible to grow old, in that state it is impossible to die. In the state of "loving" one only "is"
