Same ones as Christ in Matthew 19
As God in Ex 20
As Paul in Romans 13
As James in James 2.
And so Paul reminds us that in that list of commandments - the 5th commandment "is the FIRST commandment WITH a promise" Eph 6:2
Gal 1:6-9 "though WE (Apostles) or an ANGEL from heaven should come to you with a different doctrine - let him be accursed".
John knew about that.
They all speak in agreement.
"This IS the Love of God that we KEEP His Commandments" 1 John 5:2 is not the "circular statement" -- "This is the Love of God that we Love God"
Listen closely. 1 John 5:3 is what I'm asking about. The answer to what commandments John is talking about in this conclusion is in the same epistle. What are they?
