Right in the Ten Commandments that God personally wrote and personally spoke Exo 31:18 Exo 32:16 He defines this unit of Ten Deut 4:13 Exo 34:28 as "My commandments" the "My" part is God so God named them right in the Ten. Exo 20:6 but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments. i.e. commandments of God.
Jesus quotes directly from this same unit of Ten calling it the commandment of God and also interchangeably calling it the Word of God- see Mark 7. Lets take a look. . .
Matthew 15:3 He (Jesus) answered and said to them, “Why do you also transgress the commandment of God because of your tradition? 4 For God commanded, saying, ‘Honor your father and your mother’;
What did Jesus just quote from- the Ten Commandments Exo 20:12 calling them the commandment of God- did Jesus misspeak?
and, ‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’ 5 But you say, ‘Whoever says to his father or mother, “Whatever profit you might have received from me is a gift to God”— 6 then he need not honor his father [a]or mother.’ Thus you have made the [b]commandment of God of no effect by your tradition. 7 Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying:
He goes on to say....when we keep our rules over the commandment of God our hearts are far from Him (opposite of the NC Heb 8:10) and one worships in vain...
8 ‘These people [c]draw near to Me with their mouth,
And honor Me with their lips,
But their heart is far from Me.
9 And in vain they worship Me,
Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ ”
This is the fruit of the saints according to scripture (true worship):
Revelation 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
And if you don't trust His commandments are not from the Ten it spells it out for us, the last chapter in the bible once of the last verses before the Coming of Jesus Christ.
Revelation 22:14 Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. 15 But outside are dogs and sorcerers (Breaking commandment #1 Exodus 20:3) and sexually immoral (breaking commandment #7 Exodus 20:14) and murderers (breaking commandment #6 Exodus 20:13) and idolaters (breaking commandment #2 Exodus 20:4-6), and whoever loves and practices a lie (breaking # 9 Exodus 20:16 or any of them 1 John 2:4, James 2:10-12 Mat 5:19-30)
Our salvation is from sin, sin it the transgression of God's law 1 John 3:4 Romans 7:7 Mat 5:19-30
There is a real spiritual war going on with our souls. The devil goes to war with those who keep the commandments of God Rev 12:17 just curious does it ever bother anyone why this much contempt for something God wrote, and God spoke, and He is perfect therefore His law is perfect Psa 19:17. Its sad the moral decline we have come as a nation to have this much contempt for something so pure written personally from God. Jesus condemned those who kept their rules over the commandments of God quoting from the Ten Commandments. Mat 15:3-9 I wonder if anyone ever takes a step back to reflect which side, they really are on. Scripture warns us when we go away form the truth one will receive strong delusion. God says all His commandments are Truth Psa 119:151 and when we don't keep the commandments there is no truth in us 1 John 2:4. It seems so obvious to me we should obey God the way He asks, the example Jesus left, 1 John 2:6 Hebrews 4:15 1 Peter 2:21-22 how He lived John 15:10 Luke 4:16 what He taught Mat 5:17-30 Mat 15:3-9 Mat 19:17-19 John 15:10 John 14:15 Exo 20:6, Jesus would never lead us down the wrong path only teaching us what leads to reconciliation Rev 22:14
We are not saved by law keeping, we are saved by grace through faith. Keeping God's law is a result of faith.
