Presenting — Jesus Christ’s TEN Commandments

 Jesus Christ presented His Ten Commandments in the form of warnings that Christians should take notice of, in particular that their Salvation is at risk. If they ignore these warnings, they will NOT inherit eternal life with Him.

In this, He said:

“If ye love me, keep my commandments.”  (John 14:15)

The above verse could also be interpreted as saying:

“If ye [really and sincerely] love me [as you claim you do, then], 
keep [or OBEY each of] my commandments.”  (John 14:15)

Recently I discovered the following Ten Commandments of Jesus that are expressed in the form of ‘negative commandments’. As an example, one warning in John 3:5 says unless the CONDITION is met, he or she “…CANNOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD”

Therefore, it seems the TEN COMMANDMENTS that Jesus requires Christians to obey are:

1. Christians MUST BE PREPARED TO BE HATED AND PERSECUTED for their faith
2. Christians MUST FIRST COUNT THE COST OF THEIR SALVATION 
3. Christians MUST STOP SINNING!
4. Christians MUST BECOME “BORN-AGAIN”!
5. Christians MUST BECOME A DISCIPLE OF JESUS CHRIST
6. Christians MUST BE DETERMINED TO UNDERSTAND AND DO GOD’S WILL
7. Christians MUST PERFORM THE SAME WORKS THAT JESUS CHRIST DID!
8. Christians MUST BRING FORTH SPIRITUAL FRUIT UNTO GOD THE FATHER!
9. Christians MUST BECOME “MERCIFUL”!
10. Christians MUST BECOME PERFECT

“…write them upon the table of thine heart.”  (Proverbs 7:3)

Conditional Salvation

Jesus Christ mentions a number of CONDITIONS (or warnings) that EVERY CHRISTIAN must meet if he or she sincerely expects to enter into Heaven at their death.  

Naturally, there are extreme circumstances where these do not exist—especially where (say) a nurse witnesses Jesus Christ to a patient on a hospital trolley awaiting surgery and he accepts Christ as his Saviour before dying on the operating table. This represents a parallel situation to the Thief on the Cross with Jesus (Luke 23:42-43).

However, most Christians today have been attending churches for many years.  This message is focussed upon this group of Christians.

Therefore, the STRICT CONDITIONS required for Salvation as stated by Jesus Christ are explained in my website article.
