The Great Commandment:

To love the Lord our God with all our hearts, soul, mind and strength; and to love our neighbours as ourselves. (cf. Matt 22:37-40; Mk 12:30-31; Lk 10:27)

The Core of the Gospel Message is about the Kingdom of God.

“The time has come, the kingdom of God has come near” (Mark 1:15; c.f. Matt 3:2)

“Jesus … proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God” (Luke 8:1)

He appeared to them…and spoke about the kingdom of God (Acts 1:3)

(Paul) proclaimed the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness and without hindrance (Acts 28:31)

Scripture: Exo 13:1-2; 12-13

1 Then the Lord said to Moses,  2 “Consecrate to me all the firstborn, whatever opens the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and beast; it is Mine” ... 12  you shall set apart to the Lord all that open the womb, that is, every firstborn that comes from an animal which you have; the males shall be the Lord’s. 13  But every firstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb; and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. And all the firstborn of man among your sons you shall redeem.
