—John 14:15-24
by: Gabrielle Osborn.
I once had a friend tell me that he did not want to become a Christian yet because he still wanted to be able to party, but that maybe he would after he had lived the life he wanted to for a while. It is sad but not uncommon for people to think that Christianity is all about following a set of rules bent on squashing their fun. In John 14:15-24, Jesus explained that by following His commandments, we will be accepted into God’s love and gifted with the Holy Spirit. This was not Jesus giving us a list of dos and don’ts simply because He did not want us to have “fun.” This was Jesus showing us how to live according to God’s will so that we can have life to the fullest.
