Did you know that there are promised blessings for obedience?
That was a promise made to the physical ancient nation of Israel as they entered the promised land... as incentive for them to be stewards of the land that God had given them. It is not made to me and you as individuals in 2024. Christians are not promised physical riches beyond what we NEED, in fact, the one we follow had no great physical wealth. Rather, he warned strongly against the temptation to seek them. And Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” - Matt. 8:20 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also... ...“No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth. - Matt. 6:19-24 More on reddit.com

When Jesus said "If you love Me, you will keep My commandments", He is NOT saying obeying commandments is required to be saved.
That's.... Some mental gymnastics if I've ever seen it lol. Sorry. He made a very direct and simple if statement. If you love him, you'll keep his commandments, but if you don't keep his commandments, that means you don't love him. It doesn't get much simpler than a direct if statement. More on reddit.com

May 15, 2019 - The unmistakable meaning of the passage is that obedience to Christ’s commandments is both a sign and a test of our love for Him. The connection between love for Christ and obedience to Him is a recurring theme in the apostle John’s writings: “This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands.

Blessings for Obedience

Deuteronomy 28:1-14

1 “If you fully obey the LORD your God and carefully keep all his commands that I am giving you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations of the world.

2 You will experience all these blessings if you obey the LORD your God:

3 Your towns and your fields will be blessed.

4 Your children and your crops will be blessed.

The offspring of your herds and flocks will be blessed.

5 Your fruit baskets and breadboards will be blessed.

6 Wherever you go and whatever you do, you will be blessed.

7 “The LORD will conquer your enemies when they attack you. They will attack you from one direction, but they will scatter from you in seven!

8 “The LORD will guarantee a blessing on everything you do and will fill your storehouses with grain. The LORD your God will bless you in the land he is giving you.

9 “If you obey the commands of the LORD your God and walk in his ways, the LORD will establish you as his holy people as he swore he would do.

10 Then all the nations of the world will see that you are a people claimed by the LORD, and they will stand in awe of you.

11 “The LORD will give you prosperity in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you, blessing you with many children, numerous livestock, and abundant crops.

12 The LORD will send rain at the proper time from his rich treasury in the heavens and will bless all the work you do. You will lend to many nations, but you will never need to borrow from them.

13 If you listen to these commands of the LORD your God that I am giving you today, and if you carefully obey them, the LORD will make you the head and not the tail, and you will always be on top and never at the bottom.

14 You must not turn away from any of the commands I am giving you today, nor follow after other gods and worship them.

If this mindset were true, then the disciples of Jesus who walked with him in his earthy ministry and were faithful to building the early church would have been blessed with early riches and comforts. Most of them were martyrs. ”Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.“ ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭16‬:‭24‬-‭25‬ ‭NIV‬‬ ”For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him,“ ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭1‬:‭29‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Answer (1 of 16): If you read this verse in context (which is the only intellectually honest way to do it), you'll see that the entire passage is one in which Jesus explains to his disciples that he will send the Holy Spirit to them, so that they will not be alone.
