Love of God is the law

"Think not that I have come to abolish the law and the prophets; I have come not to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the law until all is accomplished. Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven." --Matthew 5:17-19

Beware of loving the law over the Lawmaker. Do you seek to follow the law because you love your God? Or do you follow the law because you love the law, because you think it gives you the ability to attain righteousness on your own power? How right that He should bring us crashing down! You make so many rules for yourself, you leave no room for God to work in your soul.

If you love God, you will keep all His commandments. Follow Jesus from the sheepfold to the mountains, and let your intense love for Him keep you at His heels.
