Prayer in the Name of All Men


           If they taught you only the love of neighbour, then the fullness of the
           Main Commandment according to the divine teaching was not
           preached to you. Neither is that the case if they told or taught you
           only the first part. For in this way sects generally operate, preaching
           only parts of CHRIST’s teaching exactly as it fits in with their plans.

           Especially with the Main Commandment this has been happening
           for a long time not only on the part of the sects but nearly in the
           whole official Church. No man can claim to live up to the love
           desired of GOD if he practises only part of the Main Command-
           ment.

           What do people miss out on! Because he who loves GOD whole-
           heartedly will be filled by GOD with countless blessings and tokens
           of affection. This in turn enkindles in man the desire to love and give
           GOD more and more.

           And it is here that the second part of the Main Commandment
           comes to man’s aid, because (as it says in Sacred Scripture) the
           SAVIOUR Himself does assure: „As long as you did it to one of these
           My least brethren, you did it to Me.” And indeed, this promise of
           JESUS is a real sheet anchor for anyone who loves GOD with a
           glowing heart. For he would be consumed, could he not return
           these tokens of GOD’s love as far as he is able. And here he has the
           opportunity: he practises the love of neighbour! He is lucky enough
           to know that he does it to the LORD Himself. You see, and therefore
           the love of neighbour is the second part of the Main Command-
           ment, which makes the first part (the love of GOD) perfect. This,
           and only this alone, is the Main Commandment! The Main
           Commandment of each Christian faithful!
