“True Love” & Obedience (Deuteronomy 6:1-9; John 3:16) Gary Holderby June 2011

Let Us Consider : John 3:16 in the context of other passages in scripture Mark 1:24 - unclean spirits acknowledges Jesus as Son of God -What conclusion are we forced to make? James 2:19 - confirms that obedience must accompany belief -Love, Faith, and Obedience cannot be separated!

Love & Obedience in Scripture: Deuteronomy 6:1-25 “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God…and these words today which I command you shall be in your heart…” Psalms 119 (verses): -16delight myself in your statutes -20my soul longs for your judgments -24your testimonies are my delights -31I cling to your testimonies -40I long for your precepts -47I love your commandments -97O how I love your Law -113I love your Law -119I love your testimonies -159I love your precepts Does sound like a love that has a regard for God’s commandments?

Same Love That Jesus Speaks Of: John 14:15“If you love me, …” John 14:21“He who has my commandments…” John 14:23“If anyone loves me…” John 15:10“If you keep my commandments…” John 15:14“You are my friends, if…” Why do you call me Lord, Lord and not do the things which I say? (Luke 6:46)

“His yoke is easy and his burden is light” (Matthew 11:30): Love God with all Your HeartMatthew 22:37 Love One AnotherJohn 15:12 Pray w/o Ceasing1 Thessalonians 5:17 Sing, EncourageEphesians 5:19 Assemble TogetherHebrews 10:25 Preach the WordMark 16:15; Acts 8:4 Teach Others, StudyCol 3:16; 2 Tim 2:15 Rebuke False Teachers1 Timothy 1:3 Be Like MindedPhilippians 1:27-28 Abstain from every form of evil1 Thessalonians 5:22 Abstain from fleshly desires1 Peter 2:11 Good Works (know to do and don’t)James 4:17 Mercy, kindness, meekness, patience, forgiveness, loveColossians 3:12

Examples of Love’s Relationship to Obedience: Those With Excuses for Not Obeying: Adam (Genesis 3:12) Eve (Genesis 3:13) Cain (Genesis 4:9) Moses (Exodus 3:11-4:13) Saul (1 Samuel 10:8; 13:12; 15:3-20) Jonah (Jonah 1:2; 3) Elijah (1 Kings 19:10) Rich Young Ruler (Luke 18:18) Agrippa (Acts 26:28)

Examples of Love’s Relationship to Obedience: Obedience without Excuses: Noah (Genesis 7:5) Abram (Genesis 12:1) David (2 Samuel 12:13) Saul (Acts 9) Apostles (Matthew 28:18, Mark 16:15) Us?? (John 14:21) If we say we love him and know him, we must keep his commandments! (1 John 2:3)

John 14:31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father gave Me commandment, so I do. John 14:15 If you love Me, keep My commandments. LOVE & OBEDIENCE MUST GO TOGETHER!
