Reference

John 14: 15-21 Jesus tells his disciples that if they love him, they will keep his commands
Commandment keeping: Is it a set-up?

Ten commandments.

613 mitzvah:

  • 365 prohibitions
  • 248 postive commands

Is this a set up? Who can possibly keep all of these laws and rules?

Yet Jesus says to his disciples, "If you love me, you will keep my commands."

When we break a command, does that mean we don't love Jesus?

Listen to hear how Jesus redeems law-living into kingdom-bringing!
