“If ye love me, keep my commandments.”

“Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.”

We should never attempt to have a conditional relationship with God.  "If" is a conditional statement that is usually followed by a choice.  Jesus says in John 14:15 - "If ye love me, keep my commandments" - to show proof that we love God - we should keep His commandments.  We can choose to keep His commandments or not.  This is free will.

However, we should never place these choices on God - we don't go to God and give him an ultimatum or a choice.  Too many times we take what we want, our demands, to God in prayer.  And many times if we feel God has failed to provide what we want - we get angry at God.

Listen to this episode as Allen and I discuss conditional relationships and how they can affect our spirituality.

Don't ever be ashamed to ask about things you don't understand.  Go to God in prayer, ask for answers to be revealed to you, stay in God's will and read your bible.

We aren't perfect and we don't profess to be, far from it actually - keep that in mind as you listen to our stories.  If you are spending more time picking apart our messages, your spending too much time on the wrong things.  Put your focus back on God.

Read Your Bible.  Pray.  Surround Yourself with Like-Minded Christians.  Gather with Two or More in His Name.
