Kingdom Living - The Commands of ChristSample
Commands of Christ: 11
Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or Prophets. I came to fulfill them.
God’s revelation of Himself and His will in the Old Testament was not abrogated by Jesus. Instead it was amplified, and clarified, and made possible by Jesus. Just knowing about these things is not enough. They must consume us. We can now have intimacy with God and know Him from within and hear Him constantly through His Spirit. We can not just know about His ways but actually live in them through the power of His Spirit.
Scripture
About this Plan
Our lives should be characterized by what Jesus commanded and as His followers we should be getting others to love (and thus obey) Him as well. This is not optional or for extra credit. It is the very essence of what it means to be His follower. "...teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you..." This is what Kingdom Living is all about.
