53	Matthew 19:17 And Yahshua said to him, "Why call you me good? there is no one good but one, that is, YHVH: but if you will enter into life, keep the commandments." note: Yahshua did not say, "Repeat this prayer of salvation after me and you will have assurance of salvation."

58	Matthew 26:19 And the disciples did as Yahshua had appointed them; and they made ready the passover.

60	Matthew 26:42 Yahshua went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, "O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, your will be done."
61	Matthew 27:55 And there beholding afar off were many women who had followed Yahshua from Galilee, ministering to him:
62	Matthew 27:56 Among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of Zebedee's children.
63	Matthew 27:57 When the evening had come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Yahshua's disciple:

73	Luke 8:21 And Yahshua answered and said to them, "My mother and my brothers are these which hear the word of Elohim, and do it."
74	Luke 9:15 And so the disciples made the multitude sit down.
75	Luke 9:16 Then Yahshua took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, Yahshua blessed the food, and broke it, and gave it to the disciples to set before the multitude.

88	John 5:19 Then answered Yahshua and said to the Jews, "Truly, truly, I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do: for whatsoever things the Father does, these also does the Son likewise.
89	John 6:38 For I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of Him who sent me.

92	John 14:15 If you love me, keep my commandments.

97	Acts 1:2 Until the day in which Yahshua was taken up, after Yahshua through the Holy Spirit gave commandments to the apostles whom he had chosen:
98	Acts 10:35 But in every nation he who fears YHVH, and works righteousness, is accepted by YHVH. note: The gospel is to draw men out of every nation into the Kingdom of Heaven. Those who expect to be accepted by the Creator must BOTH fear Him and DO works of righteousness.
99	Acts 22:10 I answered, "What shall I do, Adonai?" And Adonai said to me, "Arise, and go into Damascus; and there you will be told all the things which are appointed for you to do."
100	Acts 26:19 So then, king Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the vision from heaven.
101	Acts 27:32 Then the soldiers cut the ropes to the lifeboat, and let it fall [and drift away.]
102	Romans 2:13 For it's not those who hear the law who are righteous in Elohim's sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be justified.
103	Romans 6:15 What then? Shall we sin, because we are not legally bound, but under grace? Not at all! note: Come on! What nonsense! "Sin is the transgression of the law." (1 John 3:4) We honor the principles of the Mosaic code because that code was given to the Israelites by our Father in heaven.
104	Romans 6:16 Don't you know that to whom you yield yourselves servants to obey, you are slaves of the one you obey; Whether slaves of sin [rushing] to death, or obedient servants of righteousness? note: When you pledge allegiance to a nation or promise to obey the motor vehicle code, or all of the laws of the State, you are making yourself a slave to a worldly master. No man can serve two masters.
105	Romans 6:17 But thank Elohim that though you used to be slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the pattern of teaching to which you were entrusted.
106	Romans 6:18 You were set free from sin and have become servants of righteousness.
107	Romans 10:5 For Moses describes the righteousness which is by the law: That the man who follows the commands shall live by them.
108	Ephesians 6:1 Children, obey your parents in Adonai: for this is right.
109	Philippians 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, Yahshua humbled himself, and became obedient to death, even the death of the cross.
110	Philippians 3:12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of MessiYah Yahshua.
111	Colossians 3:20 Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing to Adonai.
112	1st Timothy 6:14 That you keep this injunction without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Adonai Yahshua MessiYah:
113	James 1:22 But be you doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
114	James 1:25 But whoso looks into the perfect law of independence, and continues therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
115	1st John 2:3 And hereby we do know that we know Yahshua, if we keep his commandments.
116	1st John 2:5 But whoso keeps Yahshua's word, in him truly is the love of Elohim perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
117	1st John 2:6 He who said he abides in Yahshua ought himself also so to walk, even as Yahshua walked.
118	1st John 2:17 And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he who does the will of Elohim abides for ever.
119	1st John 3:4 Whoever commits sin transgresses also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. note: Here is one of the most important realizations ever: sin is defined literally as the transgression of the Law. Any departure from any command of YHWH which concerns you is sin. Not just what the people around you think is sin, but what YHWH calls sin. For example, you know adultery is sin, but did you know oaths and agreements (with Non-Hebrews) are sin? Debt is a sin. Partaking in the census is a sin. Signing binding contracts is a sin. Did you know handing over the education of your children to others (teachers) is a sin? Nearly every example of modern life in the so-called 'Christian' world is a transgression of the Law, therefore sin. Change directions (repent) from sin.
120	1st John 3:23 And this is YAH's commandment: That we should believe on the name of His Son Yahshua MessiYah, and love one another, as He gave us commandment.
121	1st John 3:24 And he who keeps Yahshua's commandments dwells in Yahshua, and Yahshua in him. And hereby we know that Yahshua abides in us, by the Spirit which Yahshua has given us. note: This is equally true of Yah as it is true of Yahshua.
122	1st John 5:2 By this we know that we love the children of Elohim, when we love Elohim, and keep his commandments. note: Only by following the commands of YHWH can we know that we love him. By studying the commands handed to people from Yah through Moses, the Prophets, Yahshua, etc., we show that we love YHWH. If we ignore the commands given to Yah's servants through the ages, even though some confused preacher says those commands are irrelevant because we're saved by grace, we lie and the love of YHWH is not in us.
123	1st John 5:3 For this is the love of Elohim, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. note: YHWH's commands, old and new, are joyous, not grievous. The commands that came through Moses are a delight, if properly understood.
124	2nd John 1:6 And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment: That, as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it. note: Agape love refers to feasting; that we are to feed one another, feast-style. Even if it's inconvenient. All commandments to love (agapao) are connected to the Law Of Moses, which specifies in great exhaustive detail how to properly throw magnificent feasts, complete with the finest wines and juices, the finest meats, breads, oils, spices, fruits and vegetables, (cooked to perfection), the finest music, singing, and dancing. Party on!
125	2nd John 1:9 Whoever transgresses, and abides not in the doctrine of MessiYah, has not Elohim. He who abides in the doctrine of MessiYah, he has both the Father and the Son. note: If I transgress any commandments of YHWH, I have neither the Son nor the Father.
126	Apocalypsis (Revelation) 1:3 Blessed is he who reads, and they who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
127	Apocalypsis (Revelation) 22:7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he who keeps the sayings of the prophecy of this book.
128	Apocalypsis (Revelation) 22:14 Blessed are they who do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
129	1 Maccabees 2:53 Joseph in the time of his distress kept the commandment and was made lord of Egypt.
130	1 Maccabees 2:55 JAHshua for fulfilling the word was made a judge in Israel.
131	1 Maccabees 3:60 Nevertheless, as the will of Elohim is in heaven, so let him do."
