Jesus taught that the greatest commandment is to love God with all heart, soul, mind and strength, and the second is to love your neighbour as yourself (Matt 22:37‑40). Suppose a community leader argues that it is acceptable to prioritize building a new church over feeding the hungry because the former glorifies God. Using Jesus' teachings, evaluate whether this argument aligns with the two greatest commandments, and state the specific commandment that directly opposes the leader's stance.

Answer Options

A. It aligns with the first greatest commandment—"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength"—since building a church glorifies God.
Correct Answer B. It conflicts with the second greatest commandment—"Love your neighbour as yourself"—since neglecting the hungry violates the biblical call to love one's neighbour.
C. It conflicts with the first greatest commandment—"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength"—because constructing a church detracts from worship.
D. It does not conflict with either commandment; both prioritize spiritual worship over physical needs.
Correct Answer
B
Correct Option:
It conflicts with the second greatest commandment—"Love your neighbour as yourself"—since neglecting the hungry violates the biblical call to love one's neighbour.
