[Thomas Blake cited Lk 10:25-28, in which Jesus endorsed "Love the
Lord your God..." as the basis for salvation.  Jeremy Smith responded

--clh]

Yes, I understand that *you* believe that Jesus Christ is/was God.  So,
for you it logically follows that you must love Jesus with all your
heart, soul, mind and strength.  The teacher of the Law however I would
assume did not.  Jesus does not add parenthetically, ("And since I am
God, that means you have to love me as God").
