Virtually every Christadelphian Statement of Faith
includes, as an appendix, a list of the commandments
of Christ.
When
we believe the truth, we must next obey the commandments.
If we fail to do this, the truth is not only no advantage
to us, but will be to our condemnation. A community
in which the commandments of Christ are not obeyed
is not the house of God, no matter how correctly the
truth of God may be discerned as a theory.
It
cannot be too plainly stated that Christ has said,
“You are my friends if you do whatever I have
commanded you”, and “Not every man that
saith ‘Lord, Lord’ shall enter into the
kingdom of heaven, but only he that doeth the will
of my Father”. “Many will say unto me
in that day, ‘Lord, have we not preached in
thy name, and in thy name done many wonderful works?’
Then will I profess unto them, ‘I never knew
you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity’.”
