What did Jesus say about obedience and how do I obey God completely? Today we're going to look at and explain John 14:15 and talk about it's meaning for us and how we can better obey God's word. Jesus said that if we truly love Him we will obey Him and his commandments. To obey God completely, being perfectly obedient, seems almost impossible. I'm always coming up short and failing to be perfectly obedient to all God's commandments. So how do I obey God and God's Word?
Well the only way to obey God perfectly is with His help. We will never be perfect, but genuinely trying our hardest to obey God IS obedience to God. Jesus would not have told us in John 14:15 that if we truly love Him we will obey Him unless it was possible for us to do so. Allowing Jesus to work from within us to obey is how we obey God's word and commandments completely.
John 14:15 New Living Translation (NLT)
Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit
15 “If you love me, obey[a] my commandments.

Thank you for this sharing. I was really feeling so down and really sad 😔. Why can I not have more self control to prevent sin? I got upset in a situation today. 😭 failed big time. Praying so hard to God to help me get the victory I need following God's commands.

According to Jesus, if you remove body parts that cause you to sin (such as eyes, hands & feet) You'll avoid being cast into the fire & instead go to Heaven. What body part has caused you to sin? Your eyes?......Jesus says to pluck out your eye. Your hands?......Jesus says to cut off your hand. Your feet?......Jesus says to cut off your feet. What if your hand causes you to sin (for example, you steal, or you flip someone off, or you physically abuse someone, or you kill someone, or you sexually assault someone, or you masturbate) ...what if your mind causes you to sin? What if you think evil, ungodly thoughts? Or what if you think perverted thoughts & lust after someone by imagining having sex with them, & you are not married to them? Then what?.... Well, applying Jesus' logic, you'd be better off removing your brain from the rest of your body, so that you don't get cast into the fire. Wait a minute?! If you remove your brain, you'll kill yourself... ....& killing yourself is a sin, too! ...so either way, you get cast in the fire. ...so if you sin with your mind, your doomed. Well we all sin with our minds. Nobody, living past the age of 10 years old can say that they have never sinned with their mind. So we are all doomed. Wait another minute! If Jesus is The Rectifier of our sinfullness......then why is He telling people to cut off body parts to avoid being cast in the fire?? Why do we have to "pluck out our eye" because it makes us sin......when Jesus paid our price at the cross?? It makes no sense for Jesus to say "pluck out your eye, if it makes you sin" when He knows that He is rectifying our sinful eyes at the cross!!

True, I can testify because I had severe unforgiveness. After about three years of continuous seeking I found myself perfectly purified from unforgiveness. It was the most impossible thing God did in my life, and now I am dealing with some other horrible stuff, you do not know how important this message is for me right now, because i cannot sleep due to what is going on in my mind and the wrong stuff i do out of not being able to obey. Thanks! 😊

Hear answers only God can give you, regarding obedience. For thus says the Lord YahuShua whom you call jesus: "My sons, listen closely as I speak to you this parable: There were three men who devoted their lives to God, three men who sought to serve The Lord their God in righteousness. The first went out feeding the poor and the hungry, doing all he could for the needy, as he was able. The second gave everything he had to those who asked, with no thought to himself, until the day came when he had nothing more to give and he too had to ask. Yet the third did not go out, nor did he give to all who asked, but bowed down each day seeking the will of God, wanting always to walk in the ways of The Lord. Years passed by, and the three men continued in their walks, serving God each day as they were able. Then the day came when each was presented with a new choice, one which they had not faced before. To the first, The Lord sent a prophet, saying, “Thus says The Lord: Draw back now your hand from the needy, and no more go out to feed the poor and the hungry round about, but obey the Word of My mouth and sound the trumpet.” But he refused and went away in unbelief, appalled by the Word he had heard by the mouth of the prophet. The second man was faced with a similar choice; to him God sent the Word of The Lord in a book. Yet because it was not found in his Bible, the man immediately rejected it and went his way in unbelief, appalled by the Word which had been given him in the name of The Lord. And to the third, The Lord Himself said, “My son, the time has come for you to give up all you hold most dear, to give up your life for My purpose, to serve without constraint... To be greatly hated and persecuted for My name’s sake.” And with tears streaming, the servant said, “Yes, Lord.” Therefore, My sons, I ask you, of these three men, which one was truly devoted to Me, though all did good and fruitful works? For indeed many are called, yet few are chosen, few have ears to hear. Thus learning the lesson of obedience is far greater than witnessing a prophecy come to pass, or receiving healing by a miracle. For obedience is born of love. For those who have no trust seek after signs, and those who remain in unbelief wait for miracles. And those whose requests are met, while in unbelief, will soon demand them. And those who receive a sign, yet have no trust, will only expect the more. Yet only those who love Me, Without condition, will remain faithful... And only those who truly know Me Will endure in times of trouble... Says The Lord." Says He who is One, whose name is YAHUSHUA-YAHUWAH. From His Volumes of Truth, the Trumpet Call of God.

I like what you said about focusing on the positive and not on guilt and condemnation when we fail and the Holy Spirit prays for us and helps us. Also, I like what you said about the heart, because yes ,I believe we are now obedient from the heart, and we have a new heart and a newborn again spirit and the love of God has been poured out in our hearts. But I respectfully disagree with trying harder with keeping commandments or being obedient. See the examples of what Jesus said about his new commands, and in the Gospel of John, they are all about love and not following the old commands or the 613 Jewish laws. Jesus brought a new covenant a new better way. Living in Love and living from are new heart and not focusing on the law or obedience to it, because the Apostle Paul says that kills. Also in Romans, the Apostle Paul said the law was never meant for us, the gentiles. How I see it is, like Paul said, we count ourselves dead to sin and the law and alive to Christ. Also the Apostle Paul never mentions we should be obedient to any of The commandments, or that were to so ,obey Jesus commandments. Except again, his commandments to love. Does this make sense? 🎶

There is a difference between the covenant God made with Mose and the new covenant in Jesus blood. Forgiveness is a free gift for all who will accept Jesus. The Sermon of the Mount is filled with the commandments of Jesus, and Paul's letters are as well. Jesus is saying after you accept Me, live like this.

@@pastorstan3720 I agree with most of what you're saying here I just don't believe that we gentiles, are living under commandments according to the Apostle Paul. And Jesus sermon on the Mount was directed to the Jews. Although of course there are lessons we the future believers gentiles, can apply.

Trying to obey is not obeying. In Matthew chapters 5,6 and 7 Jesus gives us the repossessed updates on the law. He makes them even harder to obey. Before all we had to do was NOT sleep with some guys wife. Now we can't even think about it. You shall not murder now if we call someone a fool we are in DANGER of hell fire. In the sermon on the mount EVERYTHING He commands us to do goes directly against our nature. If someone wants your coat give to them. We don't do that. We tell the poor guy, hey poor guy get off your backside and get a job. Then take some of the money you get from your job AND GO BUY YOUR OWN COAT. Jesus commanded us to forgive our tormenters and people who have abused us. Why? Cuz if we don't forgive we are not forgiven. He told us to repent and deny ourselves. Jesus never meant or said following Him was going to be easy. As a child I was beaten battered and abused more times than you've put on clean socks . I have agonized over forgiving my tormenters my entire life. Obedience starts with the realization that we MUST deny ourselves. I want revenge Jesus said deny yourself. Why can't I watch porn everyone else does. Jesus said deny yourself. What people don't realize is that there will NOT be any scores settled on this earth. God permits the wheat and the weeds to grow together. In John 14:21 Jesus said he who has My commandments and OBEYS THEM is the one who loves ME. Without obedience we have nothing and yes it's hard. It's supposed to be hard, so was dying on a cross.

And still struggling. But we must deny ourselves.

Pastor means shepherd as in one who feeds and cares for the flock. The Apostle Paul wrote that the pastor is a gift from Jesus to His followers. Ephesians 4:11 "Now these are the gifts Christ gave to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. 12 Their responsibility is to equip God’s people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ. 13 This will continue until we all come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of God’s Son that we will be mature in the Lord, measuring up to the full and complete standard of Christ."

He was teaching that there are parts of the Human body that will cause us to sin & go to hell. What was He instructing? Self-mutilation is the solution to avoid going to hell. So my question to all Christians: Has your eyes caused you to sin? Have you lusted with your eyes? Have you looked at porn? If yes to any of these, have you been obedient to Jesus & plucked out your eyes?
