– The theme of love is evident in the Gospel of Matthew in Matthew 22:37-39 where Jesus Christ states that it is most important to love one’s God with full commitment from the heart, mind and soul of one. Loving the neighbor of an individual by a believer of God is equally important as loving the true God with full commitment from the heart, mind and soul of a believer. The importance of love in the life of every Christian has to be identified by the way in which Jesus loved and still loves every human being. There is forgiveness shown by Jesus Christ towards all human beings (especially repenting believers of Christ) because of the selfless love of Jesus Christ towards His children.
