I never said we are under the law of Moses.
His commandments, not Moses law.
Now by this we know that we know Him,
if we keep His commandments.
4 He who says, “I know Him,” and
does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
5 But whoever
keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.
1 John 2:3-5
His commandments are about Loving God and loving our neighbor.
If we hate our neighbor the we no longer have eternal life dwelling in us.
Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. 1 John 3:15
- Do you honestly believe, that if you murder people, you are loving them?
The way we demonstrate our love for God, is to love our neighbor.
If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? 21 And
this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.
1 John 4:20-21
- If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar;
You know where liars end up!
But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and
all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.” Revelation 21:8
