Now there you go, SIMPLE and to the point.
No some will think you are advocating the false doctrine, of works Righteousness, But I do not see it that way. I think you are saying "Because GOD put HIS Love in me = Salvation; I want to serve HIM with Loving Obedience. Most of us here will gladly agree with that. Because I think you are NOW putting the Obedience solely in the realm of LOVING OBEDIENCE.
To help people who wrongly think you are NOT advocating Works Righteousness, You may want to substitute the Exodus 20:6 verse with these verses:
1 John 3:14-19 (NKJV)
[SUP]14 [/SUP] We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death.
[SUP]15 [/SUP] Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.
[SUP]16 [/SUP] By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
[SUP]17 [/SUP] But whoever has this world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him?
[SUP]18 [/SUP] My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
[SUP]19 [/SUP] And by this we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him.
