As One Keeps
As One Keeps
Author: Mark V. Markov
To truly love God
With all your heart, soul, and mind.
Is to keep the Ten Commandments of God
And the second commandment of Jesus Christ
As one keeps
The Ten and the Second Commandment
Of Jesus Christ
Than the one
Truly loves God with all heart, soul, and mind.
So therefore
The one
Keeps the first commandment of Jesus Christ
Yes he or she keeps it fully.
As one keeps
The Ten and the Second Commandment
Of Jesus Christ
Than the one
Truly loves God with all heart, soul, and mind.
Exodus 20:6 ESV
6 but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.
John 15:10 ESV
If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.
Luke 10:25-28 ESV
25 And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”
26 He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?”
27 And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”
28 And he said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live.”
