To the person who said God gave a new commandment to love your neighbor. That is NOT A NEW COMMANDMENT.
OLD TESTAMENT:
"but you shall love your neighbor as yourself; I am the Lord."
Leviticus 19:18
Jesus came to FULFILL the LAW! NOT DESTROY IT.
Jesus Christ kept every commandment and did not sin once. If Christ is in us we do NOT continually DISOBEY.
"And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning."
1 John 2:3-4, 7 KJV
"Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil."
Thank you for those good words from our great God and Savior!
I was thinking today about how remarkable Jesus' whole life must have been to those who lived with Him and saw Him live from day to day from infancy on. He NEVER sinned. What did His family and childhood friends think about what they saw him do and say? Did people notice how holy and righteous He was? It must have been so obvious. Maybe that is why people followed Him so readily, knowing that His teachings matched his lifestyle. No hypocrisy, no misplaced emotions, nothing retaliatory or underhanded in all of His interactions, never a coarse of ungodly word, no guile, perfect innocence.
How lovely that must have been to behold as His mother, relatives, and friends.
