Matthew 22:37-40 is the answer for your question.
37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the firstand great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

Jesus replied "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: "Love your neighbours as yourself. All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments." - Matthew 22:37-40

I want to know why you asked such a question. You know the answer.
Mar 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
Mar 12:30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
Mar 12:31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

I think that they are all equally as important. That's why God made them the 10 Commandments, not the Top 10 Commandments.

"Love the lord with all of your heart, all of your soul, all your mind and all of your strength" is the first one. The second one is "Love your neighbors as you love yourself". He sent Jesus into the world to bring those two commandments after the children of Israel and the Gentiles violated the first 10 commandments He gave them.

1.) Love thy neighbor as thyself ... no bombs, no weapons.
2.) Turn the other cheek .... mercy, love and kindness are taught and lead by example. If all else fails--read the beautides !!!
