Bishop Jorge Herbas calls for unity between love of God and neighbor
Bishop Jorge Herbas of the Prelature of Aiquile told the faithful during Sunday Mass that love for God must be expressed through love for others. He explained that the commandment to love God and the commandment to love one's neighbor are inseparable, describing these two dimensions as two wings that allow a person to reach great heights.
The bishop warned that modern temptations can act as new idols. He noted that wealth, money, and excessive work can consume a person's time and peace. He encouraged the community to serve the living God rather than these contemporary distractions, stating that time must be dedicated to God.
