Jesus reminded us that if we are to be His disciples, we must follow Him and obey His commands. Too many professed Christians are not intentional about following Jesus’ commands in their actions and reactions. Mr. Average Christian is just aimlessly wandering around going with the cultural flows. A failure to obey the Lord is a failure to love the Lord. It is also a failure to abide in the love relationship of marital fidelity to the one to whom we are married.
“If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father’s commands and remain in his love.” John 15:10 (NIV)
