Jesus Obeyed

THE LORD JESUS CHRIST OBEYED THE WORD, WHY CAN'T YOU?
Shared by Apostle James R Winfree Sr,
"And by this do we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments."
 The Assurance Of Knowing JESUS CHRIST!!!.
Yes, we who minister His Word, Must study first. Period.
 We must walk in the light and have fellowship one with another in love,  "Do we really Know GOD?"  The Greek verb translated "KNOW" is ginosko. Emphasizing its present and perfect-tense forms, the verse could be translated, "By this are we continually knowing that we have already come to know Him." Although a Christ Believer has already come to know Christ, he or she needs to have confidence that their knowledge of Christ has resulted in Salvation. Apostle John says we can know Christ has saved us "if we keep His Holy Word." Obedience is one way of knowing you're a Christ Believer. If a person claims to be a Christ Believer, but is disobedient to GOD throughout his or her life, the Apostle John says he's "a liar, and the truth is not in him" (v. 4). The way to be assured that we truly know Him as a child knows His father is by keeping His Holy Word. Obedience results in assurance. Christ Believers who have doubts usually are involved in sin because sin breeds doubt.
GOD Loves Us, He gave JESUS!!!
JESUS Loved Us, He laid down His Life!!!
The Greek word translated "keep" conveys the idea of a watchful, observant obedience. It is not an obedience that is the result of external pressure, which might cause someone to say, "I have to do this, because I'm afraid if I don't, I'll get beat by the divine hammer of GOD!" The term is more than just the act of obeying the commands. It is a holy desire to obey God because you love Him. Rather than being a negative fear, obedience is inspired by love to become your heart's greatest desire. You are to keep Christ's commands in the Spirit of obedience. Greek Testament defines "keep" as "guarding, as some precious thing", The Greek Testament. The Christ Believers can know that he or she knows GOD when the great desire of their hearts is to guard their obedience. The present tense implies that we are to continually keep His commandments. The habitual moment-by-moment safeguarding of our obedience to the Word of GOD is a sign of our Salvation. When people claim to be Christians and then live any way they want in complete disregard of GOD'S command, they undermine their claim. We we do for Christ, it must be written in His word.
For Commandments, the Apostles did not use the Greek word nomos, which refers to the law of Moses, but the word entole, which refers to the Word of Christ. We are to keep the Word of Christ, who is the antecedent of the pronoun "His" ,  We can know a Christian because he or she keeps the Word of Christ, not because he or she obeys the law of Moses. Apostle John did not say, "By this do we know that we know Jesus, if we keep the law of Moses." But if we desire to obey and honor the Word of Christ, we prove that we have come to a saving knowledge of GOD and the Lord Jesus Christ. When a person becomes a Christian, he or she acknowledges Jesus Christ as LORD.  His authority is gladly received, then obedience is a foregone conclusion.
Jesus told Satan, It Is Written!!!
Who can continue to keep the Holy Word of GOD! Since it is the ones who continue to keep His awesome Word who know Him, and Christ Believers are the ones who know DADDY, then it follows that Believers in Christ are the only ones who can keep His Word in love by grace. The New Testament says that the unregenerate are the "children of disobedience". You don't need a lecture on human nature to understand that people are disobedient. Just look at your kids and when we were kids LOL!!!,, we all enter life that way. Conversely, 1 Peter 1:14 identifies the regenerate "as obedient children." If you're not obedient, then you're not a Christ Believer.
Jesus Christ Had To Obey GOD'S Word, And so do We!!!
If you try to be obedient, you may wonder if you obey enough. Can a Christian's life ever be characterized by absolute obedience? You must understand the distinction between legal obedience and gracious obedience. Gracious obedience pertains to GOD'S desires for us to exhibit a loving and sincere Spirit of love,grace and mercy. This is accepted by GOD and its blemishes are blotted out by the blood of Jesus Christ. The obedience that our Lord is after is not legal obedience qualified by law, but gracious obedience qualified by love. It's Not based on fear; it's based on LOVE. Amen.
We Are Leading All Souls To Our LORD GOD JESUS CHRIST.
Yes, Whoever Calls Out To JESUS!!! Will Be SAVED!!!
