If you love Jesus...

John 14:23-29

Jesus' Good News IS the fulfillment of Law and Prophets.
It is the New Covenant, expressive of God's Will for the children of God.
It is the authority in the lives of those who would be children of God.

"Those who love me will keep MY Word... whoever does not love me does not keep MY words; and the word that you hear is not mine, but is from the Father who sent me."

So many claim the name.
So many claim Jesus as Savior.
So many ignore what Jesus taught, commanded and modeled.
So many reject Jesus as Lord of their lives.

If you love Jesus, you will heed, follow and live what Jesus taught, commanded and modeled
in Agape Love and Grace.

PERIOD.

Oh... so you're a church member and claim Jesus for your life and don't know what Jesus taught, commanded and modeled for us to live in the Gospels?
Maybe it's time for a different church, different teachers.

Christianity is NOT American Civil Religion.
It is not salvation based on merit, self-righteousness in purity or holiness or adherence to the Law.
It is not about personal salvation at all, but ALL about living Agape Love in the world as Jesus did.
PERIOD.

So, you say you love Jesus?
If you love Jesus... well, you know.
