WHY ARE WE SO SMART?
Jesus said, "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever, "the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. "I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you. "A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also. "At that day you will know that I [am] in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. "He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him." Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, "Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us, and not to the world?" Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. "He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father's who sent Me. "These things I have spoken to you while being present with you.” John 14:15-25.
Readers, do you know why Jesus asked us to keep His commandments? He is telling us how to make Him happy. If we love Jesus, don’t we want to make Him HAPPY? If we love our wives or husbands don’t we want to do what they want us to do for them to make them happy? But what did we do? We keep the commandments of the PAGANS. God the Father asked us to keep His Sabbath holy in remembrance of Him. What did we do? We keep a pagan day holy in remembrance of the pagans. How on earth can we make Jesus and God the Father happy when we refuse to do what They want us to do for Them? Look brothers and sisters. We said that Jesus had died on the cross for us. Don’t we want to make Him happy? Saying that we love Him without proof can take us only to hell, not to heaven. Have our church pastors never taught us how to make Jesus and God the Father happy? Don't we know that God the Father and His only Son own heaven and we pissed them off by refusing to keep God's commandments? Is that how we plan to go to heaven? Be stupid a little bit and do what makes God happy. Do what He wants us do, and not do what we want to do. That's okay to be "stupid", as long as we are smart in His eyes.
