Jesus’ Commands

Jesus said, “If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.”

Jesus gave us a whole character package.  He didn’t give them in a list on two tablets, rather taught them over a period of 3 years to different audiences. Sometimes to crowds, other times to the disciples, still others to the Pharisees and Sadducees, and to individuals.  Often they were given in response to a question or dilemma. Other times they were given as part of a parable.  

So the genius of Jesus is that we must study His teachings regularly rather than putting a short list in our pocket.  You will quickly see that these are more than a list of do’s and don’ts.  They require character change that can only come from being born-again.  i.e. the unredeemed cannot do these, in truth.
