How do we know God's commandments are important?

Answered in 3 sources

God's commandments are central to understanding His holiness and our need for redemption through Christ.

The importance of God's commandments is highlighted through the narrative of Scripture, where multiple regulations serve to illustrate His holiness and moral standards for His people. In Matthew 22, Jesus summarizes the law into two commandments: to love God and love one's neighbor, indicating that all other commandments hinge upon these principles. The inability to perfectly follow God's rules illustrates humanity's need for a savior, reinforcing the importance of the commandments in showcasing both God's righteousness and our desperate need for grace.
