Labor
John 9:4
As long as it is day, we must do the work of him who sent me.
Night is coming, when no one can work.
Love
Luke 10:27
He answered: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and
with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and,
‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”
1 Corinthians 13
Obedience
John 14:15
15 “If you love me, you will obey what I command.
16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another
Counselor to be with you forever—
17 the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because
it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and
will be in you.
18 I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.
19 Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you
will see me. Because I live, you also will live.
20 On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and
you are in me, and I am in you.
21 Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who
loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him
and show myself to him.”
22 Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, “But, Lord, why do
you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?”
23 Jesus replied, “If anyone loves me, he will obey my
teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home
with him.
24 He who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These
words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.
Acts 5:29
Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God
rather than men!
