Whoever has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me. The one who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and reveal Myself to him.”
john 14 v 15
“ ‘Love the Almighty your God /Alayim with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. ’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘ Love your neighbor as yourself.”
mathew 5 v 37 – 40“For this is the love of God/Alahim, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.”
1 john 5 v 3
Since this is the greatest commandment I think it is in our best interest to understand what it means. We can rest assured that there is a blessing attached to keeping it and a curse if we don’t. Not because The Almighty is mean and wants to punish us but because he loves us wants what is best for us. He also knows us very well and understands that we need operant conditioning to function at our best.
