The One Test That Proves You Love Jesus By Clarence L. Haynes Jr. "If you love me, keep my commands." - John 14:15  We live in a world where people use the word love loosely. We say things like I love food, sports, or other inanimate objects. Yet, in expressing love, you will also hear people tell you how much they love Jesus. So my question is, how do you know you love God? What measuring stick are you using to define what it means to really love Jesus? In John's Gospel, Jesus gives us one, which he reinforces three times in the same chapter. On three separate occasions, Jesus identifies the one piece of evidence that proves you really love God. That is your obedience. It is impossible to say you love God if you are going to blatantly and continually do the things that break his heart.

That may be a lot of things, but that is not love.    CONTINUE READING →
