Sacred Truth Friday: True Love

Today's Devo
For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.
I John 5:3 NKJV

If we truly love God we will keep His commandments.  And His commandments are not burdensome. But bring true freedom and peace.

“If you love Me, keep My commandments.
John 14:15 NKJV
https://bible.com/bible/114/jhn.14.15.NKJV

If we love Him, we keep His commandments.

And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’  This is the first commandment.
Mark 12:30 NKJV
https://bible.com/bible/114/mrk.12.30.NKJV

We should love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength.  And from that pure love, flows obedience.


If you have not obeyed the Gospel, then please obey today before it's everlasting too late.

The Gospel in a nutshell
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;  By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.  For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;  And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
1 Corinthians 15:1‭-‬4 KJV

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
John 8:24 KJV

Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
