God's Greatest Law Is LOVE, Not Rules! Fr. Anthony Gramlich, MIC

In this powerful teaching, Fr. Anthony Gramlich, MIC, reveals why love and mercy must always come before rigid religious rules. Reflecting on Jesus healing a suffering man on the Sabbath, he explains that God's commandments are not simply about following laws but about growing in holiness, showing compassion, and bringing healing to others. Jesus teaches us that relieving someone's suffering is never a violation of God's law; it is the fulfillment of His love.

Fr. Anthony warns against two spiritual dangers: ignoring God's laws and becoming so focused on rules that we forget to love. True holiness lies in living a balanced life of virtue, where mercy triumphs over judgment and compassion guides our actions. God doesn't call us merely to follow rules; He calls us to love as Jesus loves!
