If we obey God's commands then we have come to know God!!


World Mission Society Church of God Obey God's Commands

 The letter of the Apostle John

My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense–Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world. We know that we have come to know him if we obey his commands [And hereby we know that we know him, if we keep his commandments: ASV]. The man who says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But if anyone obeys his word, God’s love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did. (1 John 2:1-6)

 
P.S.) The Apostle John wrote that we should obey God’s commandments in order not to sin. We cannot know the existence of God and His love until we keep His commandments. On the contrary, those who do not obey God’s commandments are liars, and the truth is not in them. God’s commandments include the Sabbath day and the seven feasts of three times including the Passover (Exodus 31:13; Luke 4:16; Matthew 26:7-29; 1 Corinthians 5:7-8.)
Please value God’s commandments for your sins to be forgiven. Also please do not sin again to enter the kingdom of heaven.
