Christians, how can we say that we love God but...?
do not keep His Ten Commandments which are based on love for Him and for our neighbors?
@ Oli: I don't where you got the idea that I don't sin because we are all sinners, we all fall short of the glory of God. However, Jesus did say, "if you love Me, keep My commandments." He did not seem to think that it would be an impossible thing for us to do. Paul said that love fulfills the law. And I was referring to the Christians who claim that since we are under grace we are not longer required to keep the Ten Commandments. Should we make void the law because we have received God's grace?
@ Ignoramus: I agree that being Christians does not mean that we are no longer capable of sinning. As long as we live in this sinful world we will face temptations that could lead us to sin but we have our God who will forgive us once we repent and turn away from these sins. We love God but we have to show Him. God showed us how much He loved us by sacrificing His Son so that through Him we would not perish but have everlasting life. We show God that we love Him by doing what He asks of us. He asks us to keep His commandments which He said He would write in our hearts. Paul tells us in Romans 2:14, 15 that the Gentiles followed the spirit of the law rather than the letter. The law was written in their hearts. They were not just hearers of the law but doers. They did naturally the things contained in the law and were a law unto themselves. Paul said that the doers of the law shall be justified (verse 13).

You are right. Funny how a lot of Christians today will tell you that the Ten Commandments are null and void now, or that they can choose which ones to follow! They say the 4th Commandment about the Sabbath is "done away with" since Jesus was resurrected, but Jesus (the Only One with the authority) never said to celebrate Sunday, the first day of the week as Sabbath. Grace and peace to you my friend....

We love jesus because he saved us. Jesus knows we cant follow every single rule. even though he wants us too, we are humans and we cant.
Romans 22.righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference.Rom 3:23 (all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God) this vere states that everone sins and cannot be Jesus like in any way. God has never sinned. 24and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.Romans.
3:10 "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:"
No one is perfect. but we still love Jesus because he loved us first.

Were all still sinners, that is why Jesus died on the cross, so that if we believe in him for salvation, and accept him into are life, we are forgiven and will be allowed into the kingdom of God. No matter how hard we try, we all end up failing, that is why we must believe and accept.

We sin every day of our lives, even when we are Christian. So then, does that mean no one loves God? Remember we shall not put on perfection until Jesus returns. For now show mercy and forgiveness to your brethen, and judge them not too harshly.

Jews keep ten but Christians only keep one....
Love God and love each other. But if you say you love God and don't love each other, you are a hypocrite.
If we Truly love one another it will be impossible to break any of the ten commandments.

The thing that matter is that we try. We are humans and, therefore, not perfect. We are going to fail. We are going to mess up. As long as we are truly sorry, all is forgiven.

Most christians don't act very christian. Very quick to anger and attack when someone attacks their religion, but otherwise ignoring its doctrines.
