“If you love Me, keep My commandments.
John 14:15
As Jesus’ teaches in Scripture, He calls for a response. His teaching has authority and power. It cannot be ignored. The hearer will either reject Christ’s teaching or follow Christ and be changed. There is no middle ground.
The same is true of us. We have a choice to make when confronted with the truth of God’s Word. We will obey it or we will forsake it. Jesus gives a helpful, practical principle to drive home His point in this verse of the Bible.
What will you do with Jesus’ message? Will you appropriate it and obey it? Or will you reject the Word of the Savior?
