To find out, let’s start in the book of Micah 6:8 He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doeth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?
For, a clear understanding, we will focus on two key phrases: what is good and what doeth the Lord require.
So, first we will go to Romans 7:12 Wherefore the Law is holy, and the Commandment holy, and just, and good.
So, right here, this verse is letting us know, the law is just and good and we must keep the commandments.
Now, let’s go to Deuteronomy 10:12 And now Israel, what doeth the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the Lord thy God, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul. Now, this next verse is the kicker. 13 To keep the Commandments of the Lord, and his Statutes which I command thee this day, for thy good. This is what’s required of us?
Now, let’s go to Deuteronomy 4:40 Thou shell keep therefore his statues, and his Commandments, which I command thee this day; that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolonged thy days upon the earth, which the Lord thy God giveth thee, for ever. These commandments are not just for us, but also for our children as well, and these laws are not difficult to keep.
In conclusion let’s go to Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. So, this is basically what we need to do, fear God and keep his Commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. Plain and simple and with that, Shalom.
