1 John 2:3

¹⁵If you love me, keep my commandments.

¹⁰If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, even as I have kept my Father’s commandments and remain in his love.

³For this is loving God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.

⁴⁶“Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and don’t do the things which I say?

¹³By this we know that we remain in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.

¹⁴You are my friends if you do whatever I command you.

⁹Having been made perfect, he became to all of those who obey him the author of eternal salvation,

²²so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight. ²³This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he commanded. ²⁴He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.

³²I run in the path of your commandments, for you have set my heart free. HE

²¹One who has my commandments and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”

²²Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, what has happened that you are about to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?”

²³Jesus answered him, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. ²⁴He who doesn’t love me doesn’t keep my words. The word which you hear isn’t mine, but the Father’s who sent me.
