Matthew 22:30-40 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.… Mark the unity and the simplicity which characterises this law of love to God. It is based on the declaration that there is but one God the Lord. I. THE LAW OF LOVE IN NOT INFERIOR TO THE TEN COMMANDMENTS; in fact, love of God and man includes all which these teach at greater length. II. The law of love is SUPERIOR 1. The positive, whereas the old law was negative. 2. The law of love is superior because exhaustive. 3. It is superior because it begins at the heart. 4. It is superior because it leads us directly to feel our need of the Spirit of God. (A. H. Charteris, D. D.)
