In Deuteronomy 6:4, God tells the Israelites to "love the Lord your God with all your heart,soul,and all your strength."When Jesus quotes this Scripture in Mark 12:36, He says,"And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,with all your soul,with all your mind,and with all your strength." Why did Jesus add "mind",context,perhaps?
First, the verse, you are in question is Mark 12:30 if we think about what Jesus says it is really simple you have to love the Lord with all of yourself. If your mind is not focused on the Lord then the rest of yourself will wander. With all the false preaching and people following these false preachers you have to stay focused on the word and the Lord. The lord already knew what today would be like so he put mind so we would not be lead astray. Stay focused on the Lord study your bible and pray. I hope this helps any more questions please feel free to ask or reach me in my email. Thank you.
