• Within my Reformed theological view, in my humble opinion, my desires, goals and agenda in Christ, should not be at the expense of loving my neighbour as much as I love myself (Mathew 22, Mark 12, Luke 10); nor should my desires, goals and agenda in Christ, be at the expense of loving others in the Church. See below in fellowship:
• King James Version (KJV)
• John 13: 24: A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
• John 15: 12 :This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
• 1 John 2: 9-10: He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
• New American Standard Bible (NASB)
• Back to love one's neighbour as self...
