Bible Note: Hello again, pbs. I do believe the life of the believer is simple and straightforward, if we would keep it that way. We must be devoted to him enough to trust him and obey him. What he asks of us is pretty simple: Love one another. If we keep that in mind, I think we can relax and just do it. Much can be said about the experience. We obey the new commandment to show our love for him (John 15). We love him because he first loved us (1 John 4), etc. These are given to encourage us. But the task is clear and (1 John 5:3) not hard. We should avoid the distractions, keep it simple, and do it. |
