Love your neighbor… as yourself. Who is our neighbor and what is love?

IMPACT CARD

Passage: Leviticus 19

Discussion Questions:

1. Share a time when someone had been a “loving neighbor” to you in a way that was surprising or meaningful.

2. Out of the more than 600 commandments in the Old Testament, why did Jesus choose those two as the “greatest”? Why not just the first one, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind”?

3. “Love your neighbor as yourself” appears 9 times throughout scripture. Jesus, Paul, and James all state variations of “the law is fulfilled” by following this one command. (Romans 13:9, Galatians 5:14, James 2:8) How is that possible?

4. Reflect on your own ability to Love Your Neighbor as Yourself.
