What does the Bible say about love and obedience?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible commands us to love one another as Christ has loved us, emphasizing that love fulfills the law.

In John 15:12-14, Jesus explicitly commands His followers to love one another as He has loved them. This makes love a critical aspect of obedience to Christ's teachings. The essence of Christian love is not based on the worthiness of the other but is a reflection of the love Christ has shown to us. As believers, our love for others is a direct response to the love we have received from Christ, and it serves as evidence of our obedience to His commandments.
