1 John 5:3
For this is the love for Elohim, that we guard His commands, and His commands are not heavy,
The love of Elohim (God) is that we guard HIS Commands...... when we come to know HIS heart and HIS love for us, then we come to know why all the commands hang on Loving YHVH Elohim, and loving our neighbor as ourselves. They are not burdensome, but rather as Messiah Y'shua is life so are HIS Commands. After all, Messiah Y'shua is The Word made flesh. He came to give life more abundantly....... meaning, He came to Fully Preach the Torah. Receiving the Word of YHVH is and always will be a matter of ones heart. HIS Torah is all about LOVE!
