And John later on in his letter tells us exactly what those commandments are in the New Covenant.
1 John 3:23 (NASB)
[SUP]23 [/SUP] This is His commandment, that we believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as He commanded us.
Right believing will bring about right thinking which creates by the life and grace of God in Christ - right living.

John 12
[SUP]46 [/SUP]I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness. [SUP]47 [/SUP]And if anyone hears My words and does not believe,[SUP][i][/SUP] I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. [SUP]48 [/SUP]He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him—the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day. [SUP]49 [/SUP]For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak. [SUP]50 [/SUP]And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak.”
