Mark 12:30 KJV – “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment”. -----
John 14:15 KJV – “( IF YE LOVE ME ), keep my commandments”. -----
John 15:10 KJV – “( IF YE KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS ), ye shall ABIDE IN MY LOVE; even as I HAVE KEPT MY FATHER'S COMMANDMENTS, AND ABIDE IN HIS LOVE”. -----
There’s not a single one of you who knows what those three verses are referring to!! – Moreover, you probably don’t CARE!! - BUT, you’ll continue to call yourselves Christians.
THAT’S COOL!!

Mark 12:30 KJV ------//--- That gives to what extent the Christian’s Love of the Lord, and that Love is in direct relation to the obedience of His Lord’s commandments. Therefore, the Christian obeys the Lord with all his heart, and with all his mind, and with all his Soul. One’s Love and his obedience must be equal, because they cannot be separated, being the same thing.

I agree. I was writing a new post about this just before I saw your comment. Thanks

John 15:10 KJV -----//-- That's what John is saying there. - His Love for the Father is the same as His obeying the Farher. Or Jesus' obedience IS THE "ABIDING" IN LOVE.

Mark 12:31 The second is: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."
Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,
to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, forever. Amen. -Ephesians 3:20 & 21
1Co 13:11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. But when I became an adult, I set aside childish ways. - Let's at least work at it?

Mark 12:31 The second is: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."
I didn't say that it wasn't; - I was speaking of the FIRST Commandment.
Now that you mentioned it, what does that LOVE CONSIST of? --- Obeying your neighbor's commandments, or is there something that the unlearned don't understand about all the different Loves that God speaks of??

I don't obey my kids, my kids obey me (Hopefully, like with Jesus for me, my yolk with my kids is easy and light for them).
So I have to agree with you here. Love's demand is different between God and man as it is between father and children. Parent's don't obey children, children obey parents.

OOOHHH, that man could understand that, and more. – Jesus is the Word, the Word is in our hearts, and God is the Truth of that Word, and “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he”. -- Our hearts are the house and table and True Bread of our own Eternal Lives / Jesus. We are like Him in the seeing of Truth in the looking glass of the Word of God. = Christian.
