Do you believe it is possible to love Jesus without obedience to Him?
Absolute perfect obedience?

(which is what is required of us in regards to not being damned, and is what is imputed to all His children with the blood of Christ in terms of justification upon judgement)


Yes.


Though we demonstrate the love we have and what He has worked in us through obedience.

Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing: but the observance of the commandments of God.

If any seem to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him know the things that I write to you, that they are the commandments of the Lord.

Which religion do you believe I am promoting? o_O
the one that yanks verses out of context and ignores word definitions.

such as you did a earlier.

you quoted Jesus saying if you love me, keep My commands .

I told you what the commands were, you ignored it.

that is a fake, man-made religion.

and you are pushing it.

The Bible is not a man-made religion. The Bible is the word of God; you need to learn to not get offended by the Word of God.

you need to properly use the Word of God.

the Bible is not yours to do with as you please .
you have no authority to do so.
