Why is love for Christ demonstrated through obedience?

Answered in 1 source

Love for Christ is shown by keeping His commandments, as obedience is a reflection of genuine faith.

As highlighted in John 14:15, Jesus states, 'If you love me, you will keep my commandments.' This assertion indicates that true love for Christ is not merely emotional but is manifested through obedience to His Word. Obedience is the natural outflow of a heart transformed by His grace and reflects the believer's desire to honor Him. Genuine love for Christ results in a commitment to following His teachings and commands, grounding the believer's identity in their relationship with Him.
