How does following Christ relate to obeying His commandments?

Answered in 1 source

To follow Christ is to love Him and keep His commandments.

Following Christ intrinsically involves obedience to His commandments, as highlighted in John 14:15, where Jesus states, 'If you love me, keep my commandments.' This obedience reflects our love and commitment to Him, demonstrating that true faith manifests in our actions. All of His commands, including the call to love one another, are not burdensome but are expressions of our relationship with Him. Thus, obedience is a natural outcome of genuine faith and reflects our devotion to Christ.
