Avoiding Those Who Lead Only “From Their Own Imagination”

Ezekiel 13:2:

“Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel who are now prophesying out of their own imagination.” 

In an age of endless blogs and political speeches, better to listen to those who speak guided by what Jesus called the two greatest commandments:  Mark 12:29-31:

“Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”  an inquirer asked Jesus.

Jesus replied, “The most important one is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength’ The second is this “Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”
