Love for our neighbour has neither labels nor colours – The Archbishop

First source report

Catholic Intelligence1 min read

Archbishop Charles Jude Scicluna said in a homily that Jesus' teachings establish interconnected loves: love for God, love for neighbor, and love for oneself.

During his reflection on the Gospel, the Archbishop noted that Jesus unified two commandments into a single foundation of love. He explained that the command to love one's neighbor is tied to the command to love oneself, as Jesus instructs people to love others as they love themselves. Scicluna compared the search for this fundamental commandment to a nation determining its priorities when drafting a constitution.
