THE LORD HAS TOLD YOU WHAT HE WANTS FROM YOU
Micah 6:8 The LORD ….. he has told you what he wants from you: do what is right to other people, love being kind to others, and live humbly, obeying your God.
Hosea 6:6 I want faithful love more than I want animal sacrifices. I want people to know me more than I want burnt offerings. (KJ, NIV For I desire mercy, not sacrifice….)
Remember: 2 times Jesus wore out the Pharisees with this statement Mat 9:12, Mat 12:7
Luke 6:36 Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
James 2:13 So you must show mercy to others, or God will not show mercy to you when he judges you
Gal 5:13 The whole law is made complete in this one command: “Love your neighbor as you love yourself.” (Lev 19:18)
