So when you personally take these commands seriously, obey them joyfully, and freely give yourself to your church you will begin to really experience the Kingdom of God here on earth!
So remember what Jesus expects of you. “This is my commandment: Love each other in the same way I have loved you. There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command.” If you claim to be a friend of Jesus then you must do something about your relationships with the local church.
