Pretty much all of Christendom admits that the first 4 commandments deal with Love for God (also found in Deut 6:5) and the last six with Love for your neighbor (as found in Lev 19:18)Where does the writing with His finger say to love?
Which we find in Lev 19:18 and Deut 6:5So, If Jesus gave 2 commandments to love.
"IF YOU LOVE Me KEEP My Commandments" John 14:15.It's seemingly clear that the 10 would be fulfilled by them
Love Keeps God's commandments - by keeping God's commandments. Not by deleting/downsizing them.
Rev 14:12 "the saints KEEP the Commandments of God AND their faith in Jesus"
SDAs believe Christ is God - speaking His Commandments at Sinai as Paul points out in his repeat of the Jer 31:31-34 NEW Covenant - that we read in Heb 8:6-12. When scripture says "Love Me and KEEP my Commandments" in John 14 -- it is the same God the Son speaking as in Ex 20:6SDA substitute scriptures of the words "keep my commandments" with the commandments of Jesus Christ.
"this IS the LOVE of God that we KEEP His Commandments" 1 John 5:3
