"If you love me, you will obey what I command." - John 14 Verse 15 (NIV)
Do you love Him? Don't you? Now you can tell.
Jesus puts it simply. He says, "If you love me, you will obey what I command." You cannot love Him without obeying Him. You cannot love and disobey Him.
What is it that Jesus has commanded you? You may not know much, but I am sure you know something of what He has commanded you. I am referring to basics here, not to some scholarly knowledge.
The question, really, is not about that which you do not know; it's about that which you know, however little. What have you done with it?
You demonstrate your love for Him by obeying what He commands you, under all circumstances, under all forms of opposition, without compromise.
Regrettably, a number of Christians are eager to obey what people command them more than they seek to obey what Jesus commands them.
Love Him; obey His commands. I exhort you.
"Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him." - John 14:21 (NIV)
