Episode Synopsis


If God commanded you to do something or not do something, would you listen to Him?  A command is not a request.  It is not a petition.  It has the weight of authority and it has consequences for disobedience.  As we look around at all God has bestowed to us, the abundant provision and gifts, we clearly see the powerful love of Almighty God.  Let this abundant love from God compel us to obey.  Jesus said, "If you love me, you will obey my commandments" (John 14:15).  So, our love for God is either shown or not shown in how we obey His commandments.  And God is a loving Father.  He created life, He knows the path to life, and He wants us on that path.  His commandments are to that path.  They are, to Him.
