أَحْبِبِ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلهَكَ مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِكَ، وَكُلِّ نَفْسِكَ، وَكُلِّ قُدْرَتِكَ، وَكُلِّ فِكْرِكَ، وَأَحْبِبْ قَرِيبَكَ كَنَفْسِكَ
إنجيل القدّيس لوقا10/من25حتى28/اذَا عَالِمٌ بِالتَّوْرَاةِ قَامَ يُجَرِّبُ يَسُوعَ قَائِلاً: «يا مُعَلِّم، مَاذَا أَعْمَلُ لأَرِثَ ٱلحَياةَ الأَبَدِيَّة؟». فَقَالَ لَهُ: «مَاذَا كُتِبَ في التَّوْرَاة؟ كَيْفَ تَقْرَأ؟». فَقَالَ: «أَحْبِبِ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلهَكَ مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِكَ، وَكُلِّ نَفْسِكَ، وَكُلِّ قُدْرَتِكَ، وَكُلِّ فِكْرِكَ، وَأَحْبِبْ قَرِيبَكَ كَنَفْسِكَ». فَقالَ لَهُ يَسُوع: «بِالصَّوابِ أَجَبْتَ. إِفْعَلْ هذَا فَتَحْيَا».”

 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbour as yourself.’
Luke 10/25-28: “Just then a lawyer stood up to test Jesus. ‘Teacher,’ he said, ‘what must I do to inherit eternal life?’ He said to him, ‘What is written in the law? What do you read there?’ He answered, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbour as yourself.’And he said to him, ‘You have given the right answer; do this, and you will live.

وٱللهُ ٱلعارِفُ بِٱلقُلُوبِ قد شَهِدَ فوَهَبَ لَهُمُ ٱلرُّوحَ ٱلقُدُسَ كما وهَبَهُ لنا
سفر أعمال الرسل15/من01حتى12/”يا إِخوتي، نَزَلَ أُناسٌ منَ ٱليَهُودِيَّةِ فأَخَذُوا يُعَلِّمُونَ ٱلإِخوَةَ ويَقُولُون: «إِنْ لَمْ تُخْتَنُوا بِحَسَبِ تَقْلِيدِ مُوسَى، فلا يُمْكِنُكُم أَنْ تَخْلُصُوا». فَوَقَعَ بَيْنَهُم وبَيْنَ بُولُسَ وبَرْنَابَا خِلافٌ وجِدَالٌ عَنِيف، فتَقَرَّرَ أَنْ يَصْعَدَ بُولُسُ وبَرْنَابَا وأُناسٌ آخَرُونَ مِنْهُم إِلى ٱلرُّسُلِ وٱلكَهَنَةِ في أُورَشَليم، لِلنَّظَرِ في هذِهِ ٱلمَسْأَلَة. فهؤُلاءِ، بَعْدَما شَيَّعَتْهُمُ ٱلكَنِيسة، ٱجْتازُوا فِينِيقِيَةَ والسَّامِرَة، وهُمْ يُخْبِرُونَ بِٱهْتِداءِ ٱلوَثَنيِّين، ويُفَرِّحُونَ جَمِيعَ ٱلإِخْوَةِ فَرَحًا عَظِيمًا. ولَمَّا وَصَلُوا إِلى أُورَشَليم، رَحَّبَتْ بِهِمِ ٱلكَنِيسَةُ وٱلرُّسُلُ وٱلكَهَنَة، فأَخْبَرُوهُم بِكُلِّ مَا صَنَعَهُ ٱللهُ مَعَهُم. وقَامَ أُنَاسٌ مِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا على مَذْهَبِ ٱلفَرِّيسِيِّينَ ثُمَّ آمَنُوا، فَقَالُوا: «يَجِبُ أَنْ يُخْتَنَ ٱلوَثَنِيُّون، ويُلْزَمُوا بِٱلحِفَاظِ على تَوْرَاةِ مُوسَى». فَٱجْتَمَعَ ٱلرُّسُلُ وٱلكَهَنَةُ لِيَنْظُرُوا في هذَا ٱلأَمْر. وبَعْدَ جِدَالٍ طَويلٍ قَامَ بُطْرُسُ وقَالَ لَهُم: « أَيُّهَا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلإِخْوَة، أَنتُم تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ ٱللهَ ٱخْتَارَنِي مِنْ بَيْنِكُم، مُنْذُ ٱلأَيَّامِ ٱلأُولى، لِيَسْمَعَ ٱلوثَنِيُّونَ مِن فَمِي كَلِمَةَ ٱلإِنْجِيلِ ويُؤْمِنُوا! وٱللهُ ٱلعارِفُ بِٱلقُلُوبِ قد شَهِدَ فوَهَبَ لَهُمُ ٱلرُّوحَ ٱلقُدُسَ كما وهَبَهُ لنا. ومَا فَرَّقَ بِشَيءٍ بَيْنَنا وبَيْنَهُم، وقَدْ طَهَّرَ بِٱلإِيْمَانِ قُلُوبَهُم. فَٱلآنَ إِذًا، لِمَاذا تُجَرِّبُونَ ٱللهَ بِأَنْ تَضَعُوا على أَعْنَاقِ ٱلتَّلامِيذِ نِيرًا عَجِزْنا عَنْ حَمْلِهِ نَحْنُ وآبَاؤُنا؟ فنَحْنُ نُؤْمِنُ أَنَّنَا نَخْلُص، كَمَا هُمْ أَيْضًا يَخْلُصُون، بِنِعْمَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوع». فَسَكَتَ ٱلجُمْهُورُ كُلُّهُ، وأَخَذُوا يَسْتَمِعُونَ إِلى بَرْنَابَا وبُولُس، وهُمَا يُحَدِّثَانِ بِجَمِيعِ مَا صَنَعَ ٱللهُ على أَيْدِيهِمَا مِنْ آيَاتٍ وعَجَائِبَ بَيْنَ ٱلوَثَنِيِّين.”

And God, who knows the human heart, testified to them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as he did to us; and in cleansing their hearts by faith he has made no distinction between them and us.
Acts of the Apostles 15/01-12: “Then certain individuals came down from Judea and were teaching the brothers, ‘Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.’ And after Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and debate with them, Paul and Barnabas and some of the others were appointed to go up to Jerusalem to discuss this question with the apostles and the elders. So they were sent on their way by the church, and as they passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, they reported the conversion of the Gentiles, and brought great joy to all the believers. When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and the apostles and the elders, and they reported all that God had done with them. But some believers who belonged to the sect of the Pharisees stood up and said, ‘It is necessary for them to be circumcised and ordered to keep the law of Moses.’ The apostles and the elders met together to consider this matter. After there had been much debate, Peter stood up and said to them, ‘My brothers, you know that in the early days God made a choice among you, that I should be the one through whom the Gentiles would hear the message of the good news and become believers. And God, who knows the human heart, testified to them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as he did to us; and in cleansing their hearts by faith he has made no distinction between them and us. Now therefore why are you putting God to the test by placing on the neck of the disciples a yoke that neither our ancestors nor we have been able to bear?On the contrary, we believe that we will be saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, just as they will.’ The whole assembly kept silence, and listened to Barnabas and Paul as they told of all the signs and wonders that God had done through them among the Gentiles.”
