He that says: “I have come to know him,” and yet is not observing his commandments,
is a liar...? and the truth is not in this [person].1 John 2:3-6
We realize that we “have come to know” God, understanding him and his qualities, if “we continue observing his commandments.” Anyone claiming to know Jehovah but failing to obey him “is a liar.” Conversely, “the love of God has been made perfect,” or complete, if we observe his word. “By this” evidence of obeying and loving God, we know we are “in union with him.”
Jesus says
John 17:3) This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ. (John 17:3) and in another place he Says: In answer Jesus said to them: “Stop murmuring among yourselves. 44*No man can come to me unless the Father, who sent me, draws him; and I will resurrect him in the last day. 45*It is written in the Prophets, ‘And they will all be taught by Jehovah.’ Everyone that has heard from the Father and has learned comes to me.(John 6:43-45)
So According to Gods Command we are obliged to walk as his Son ( Jesus Christ) did, in the disciple-making work, in our relationships with others, and so forth.
But How does one acquire this Life giving knowledge?
