Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Never forget these commands that I am giving you today.

'The LORD our God showed us his greatness and his glory when we heard him speak from the fire! Today we have seen that it is possible for people to continue to live, even though God has spoken to them. But why should we risk death again? That terrible fire will destroy us. We are sure to die if we hear the LORD our God speak again.
Has any human being ever lived after hearing the living God speak from a fire?
Go back, Moses, and listen to everything that the LORD our God says. Then return and tell us what he said to you. We will listen and obey.'

There you will look for the LORD your God, and if you search for him with all your heart, you will find him.

He will not abandon you or destroy you, and he will not forget the covenant that he himself made with your ancestors.

"Search the past, the time before you were born, all the way back to the time when God created human beings on the earth. Search the entire earth. Has anything as great as this ever happened before? Has anyone ever heard of anything like this?
