It is my pleasure to point out that
Revelation 14:12 and
John 14:15 are both written by the same author. I enjoy quoting him.
So also
1 John 5:2-3 where we find that "This IS the Love of God that we KEEP His Commandments".
So also
John 12 and
John 14 where John reminds us that Christ speaks only the Commandments given by the Father... not His own Words.
As we already saw here --
John 14
9 Jesus *said to him, “Have I been so long with you, and
yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how
can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me?
The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own initiative,
but the Father abiding in Me does His works.
John 12
49 For
I did not speak on My own initiative, but
the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak. 50 I know that
His commandment is eternal life; therefore the things I speak,
I speak just as the Father has told Me.”
Matt 19
17 And He said to him, “Why are you asking Me about what is good? There is
only One who is good; but if you wish to enter into life,
keep the commandments.” 18
Then he *said to Him, “
Which ones?” And Jesus said, “You shall not commit murder; You shall not commit adultery; You shall not steal; You shall not bear false witness; 19 Honor your father and mother; and You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 20 The young man *said to Him, “All these things I have kept; what am I still lacking?” 21 Jesus said to him, “If you wish to be complete, go
and sell your possessions and give to
the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”
