Self-Control of Love's Hierarchy.

Jesus said it very well when He condensed the 10 Commandments into 2:

Leviticus 19:9,18; Matthew 19:19, 22:39; Mark 12:31,33; Luke 10:27; Romans 13:9, Galatians 5:14,  "Love the LORD GOD with all your heart, soul, body, and mind; the second is to Love your neighbor as yourself."

GOD is to be first in everything we think, say, and do.

Who exactly is your "neighbor?" It's all people, starting with our parents, children, siblings, spouses, relatives, friends, acquaintances, even our enemies. Matthew 5:44, Jesus said, "I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you so that you may be sons of your Father in heaven." Luke 6:27, Luke takes it further than Matthew, "Love your enemies and do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you!" 

Self-Control, what a responsibility mankind has as individuals!
