There is no greater commandment than to love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength; however the second is also of most importance, to love your neighbor as yourself.
So, we, as Christians are called to love God first, with every fiber of our beings. Without His love, we couldn't possibly love anything else in the world.
We are then to love ourselves. We have to love ourselves as children of God before we can love others. We experience His love in order to have the ability to share His love with others.
We should love others as brothers and sisters in God's creation because we are all children of God. He loves each one of us individually and equally.
