    yes this is a must for salvation please read (Psalm 20:5)  5 We will cry out joyfully because of your salvation, And in the name of our God we shall lift our banners. May Jehovah fulfill all your requests.

    (James 2:23) . . .“Abraham put faith in Jehovah, and it was counted to him as righteousness,” and he came to be called “Jehovah’s friend.. . .

    Jesus our friend said the following (John 15:12-16) 12 This is my commandment, that YOU love one another just as I have loved YOU.  No one has love greater than this, that someone should surrender his soul in behalf of his friends.  YOU are my friends if YOU do what I am commanding YOU.  I no longer call YOU slaves, because a slave does not know what his master does. But I have called YOU friends, because all the things I have heard from my Father I have made known to YOU. YOU did not choose me, but I chose YOU, and I appointed YOU to go on and keep bearing fruit and that YOUR fruit should remain; in order that no matter what YOU ask the Father in my name he might give it to YOU.

    So to be Jesus friend we must do what he commands us to do, he commanded us to keep bearing fruit and to make known what his Father Jehovah wants us to do.
