We love God by loving His children..you don’t have to go to the 10 commandments to show people love because love comes from a pure heart (inside you) 1Timothy 1:5..The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart, a good conscience and a sincere faith...
Seek those and you will find love and demonstrate it to others...
If you love God and your fellow man, than you will keep the 10---they show you what it means to do both. Again---the 1st 4 list our duty to God and the last 6 our duty to man.
1Jn_5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
2Jn_1:6 And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.
All you twisting and turning means nothing when you see the word of God as it is written instead of through the lens of self. This has to do with worship!! And worship is determined by God not man. Cain thought to worship Gold as he pleased, Able did it as God said. In the last days that is what it all boils down to---the worship of God as He directs or the worship of what man says. Putting aside everyth9ng else---what is the main theme?
Rev_13:12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
Rev_13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Rev_14:7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
Rev_14:9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
Rev_14:11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
From day one this has been all about whom we worship, whom we obey---Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, down to the last days---it is all about worship and obedience.
You are free to worship and obey whomsoever and in whatever manner you want---I choose to do and obey whatever God has said, and He said it in His word from the very start----obey and live---disobey and die.
Gen 2:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
Gen 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
It is still the same.
