If you love Me

Jesus said to His Disciples, “If you love Me, keep My commandments.” John 14:15

That means the Disciples must have known His commandments. They had been walking with Him for three and a half years. Training, learning, doing.

Do you know any of them? The thing is, if you truly love Him, you should know each and every one of them, and more, be following them. They should be part of your life.

Even this Word to us is a command
