Q4. What does God's law require of us?

Christ teaches us this in summary in Matthew 22:37-40:

"'You shall love the Lord your God
with all your heart,
and with all your soul,
and with all your mind.'1
This is the greatest and first commandment.

"And a second is like it:
'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'2

"On these two commandments hang
all the law and the prophets."
