'Love is not a burden...It should be a joy'

I hope Jesus will give us all the strength to keep his commandments and show him the love that he deserves.

Jesus loved those who kept Gods Commandments.
Keep His Commandments and He will love you. That is His promise; That He and The Father will come to you and remain with you forever.

[newsongarise]

Let love rain, like sweet mercy from heaven. Let mercy flow like waves and waves flowing richly from the heart of God. May love arise ... may mercy come forth ... may love and mercy bring forth hearts of compassion. Compassion for the lost, compassion for the thirsty, compassion for the hungry, compassion for the poor, compassion for the homeless, compassion for others. Not in just words or deeds done, but from the depths of the heart seeking to give Glory to God through open arms embracing the needs of others. May we look with the heart of God. May we see with his eyes or mercy and compassion and may we do all things to His Glory. For the river of God is love, may it flow richly through us. For the river of God is sweet mercy, may it flow richly through us. For the river of God is compassion, may they see it in our eyes, hear it from our hearts and see it through open arms embracing the needs of others. May we place others even before ourselves and love like Jesus.

All except the commandment to keep the Sabbath

I feel like non-Catholics would comment here and attack the Catholics because "Catholics don't follow the 10 commandments"... again. Let's just focus that we are united in Christ and learn something from the video. Shalom!

[WilfredoFernandez-mv]

10 Commandments separate from 603 Mosaic Laws.

So precious what you say, but just wondering, since you yourself are recording your own videos, why don’t you look straight to the camera? Is this some sort of trick I am not familiar with? 😁

[UpholdersoflightMinistry]

Yes. The biblical ten commandments and not the Catholic 10 commandments

[estelasanchez.]

You don’t have to circumcise yourself to mark yourself as someone who loves God and is following His commandments because God wants a circumcision of the heart. What’s the point of marking yourself but never portraying God loves unto our loved ones and enemies?

If you wanna keep the commandments go ahead, but if you fail with just one (hence a heavy burden these commandments) then you’ll die by the commandments instead of grace God gives us the moment Jesus died for us on the cross.

You’re basically trying to say that “commandments is what (and only what) we need, so we can just ignore what Jesus did on the cross”.

You can’t ignore what Jesus did on that cross. You have to remember and have faith as to what our Lord and saviour did.

☎️🎙📢[7:163] Remind them of the community by the sea, who desecrated the Sabbath. When they observed the Sabbath, the fish came to them abundantly. And when they violated the Sabbath, the fish did not come. We thus afflicted them, as a consequence of their transgression.
[16:124] The Sabbath was decreed only for those who ended up disputing it (Jews & Christians). Your Lord is the One who will judge them on the Day of Resurrection regarding their disputes.

🔥 Deuteronomy 21:23..anyone hanging on a tree is cursed of God. Don’t defile the land the Lord your God has given you. 🔥 Galatians 3:13  (KJV)💫 13 Christ...being made a curse for us..💥

☎️🎙📢 1 Peter 3:6 Amplified Bible
6 just as Sarah obeyed Abraham [following him and having regard for him as head of their house], calling him [a]lord. And you have become her daughters if you do what is right without being frightened by any fear [that is, being respectful toward your husband but not giving in to intimidation, nor allowing yourself to be led into sin, nor to be harmed].

Footnotes

1 Peter 3:6 In ancient times a common title of honor and respect.

Did you know that the gospel teacher who left the message for the Lost sheep of Isra'el is not the jwsus made up by Paul of Tarsus, the sower of the tares after Yehoshua sowed the good word, the truth?? Paul/Satan made the test of Deuteronomy chapter 13.
Mattan/matthew gospel chapter 13 and 24 expose those who came after.
Paul is directly exposed as the man in the desert who said he saw GOD'S teacher as an angel of light and that new god told him the commandments don't mean anything now and to just believe and support the churches, the pagan places of worship. Paul mockingly tells his children, his flocks that the Satan masquerades as an angel of light, whom he saw in the desert and Paul snidely tells them about the man of sin who lead the whole world into deep sin, breaking all GOD'S COMMANDMENTS.
Choose GOD and go back and find your roots so this knowledge doesn't evaporate.
Go to Abraham, see him separate from the entire world that was filled with idol worship, images to bow down to.
Be like the teacher Moses and Yehoshua, take to heart the covenant commandments and regulations as given to Moses.
You will receive the blessings the good the gospel offered or the curses that come with going to the idols.
It's easy when you just read and do

The first COMMANDMENT of GOD.
Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have NO OTHER GODS (((before ME))) who is ME?
ME = only 1 being, if you believe in a trinity God.
Who is ME? In Exodus 20:3.
GOD the FATHER,
GOD the SON
GOD the HOLY SPIRIT?
Exodus 34:14. For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God: Exodus 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 6 And ((shewing mercy)) unto thousands of them that ((love me, and keep my commandments)).
Is the God of the Jews also the God of the Gentiles?
The testimony of Jesus.

Again who is the ME in Exodus 20:3

[gloriastreet]

You show your love to God by believing in his son Jesus. By believing that Jesus‘s sacrifice was sufficient for the forgiveness of all your sins, past present and future. By believing that nothing needs to be added to this gift. By believing in Jesus‘s last words on the cross… It is finished. Finished means finished. To add anything to this wonderful gift from God, puts your salvation in jeopardy. Trust Jesus alone, pray to Jesus alone🙏🙏
