SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:24
El que no me ama, no guarda mis palabras; y la palabra que habis oído, no es mía, sino del Padre que me envi.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - John 14:24
Verse 24. He that loveth me not, &c.] Hence we learn that the man who is not obedient to the testimonies of Christ does not love him; and the Spirit of this truth has said, He who loves not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed, 1 Cor. xvi. 22.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 24. He that loveth me not, keepeth not my sayings , etc.] These words may have respect both to external professors of religion, who being destitute of true love to Christ, though they outwardly observe his ordinances and commands; yet inasmuch as this does not spring from a principle of love to him, and is done only to be seen of men, or to obtain life for themselves, may be said, not to keep his words or commands, because they do not keep them aright; and to the profane world, who, as they have no affection to Christ, pay no regard to any orders or ordinances of his: and they may be considered as having in them a reason or argument, justifying the conduct of Christ, in manifesting himself to his disciples, and not unto the world; as the following words give a reason why the Father takes so much notice of, comes and makes his abode with such as keep the words of Christ: and , or for the word which you hear, is not mine, but the Fathers which sent me : that is, it is not only mine, but my Fathers also: it is not mine as man; it is not a scheme of things of my own devising; it is not from earth, but from heaven; my Father has a concern in it, and therefore regards such who hear, receive, and keep it: and this is said by him partly to engage a greater regard and attention to his word, his truths, and ordinances, by his disciples; and to expose and aggravate the sin of those who despised and rejected them; since it was not barely casting contempt on him, but on his Father likewise.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 18-24 - Christ promises that he would continue his care of his disciples. will not leave you orphans, or fatherless, for though I leave you, ye I leave you this comfort, I will come to you. I will come speedily to you at my resurrection. I will come daily to you in my Spirit; in the tokens of his love, and visits of his grace. I will come certainly a the end of time. Those only that see Christ with an eye of faith, shal see him for ever: the world sees him no more till his second coming but his disciples have communion with him in his absence. Thes mysteries will be fully known in heaven. It is a further act of grace that they should know it, and have the comfort of it. Having Christ' commands, we must keep them. And having them in our heads, we must kee them in our hearts and lives. The surest evidence of our love to Chris is, obedience to the laws of Christ. There are spiritual tokens of Christ and his love given to all believers. Where sincere love to Christ is in the heart, there will be obedience. Love will be commanding, constraining principle; and where love is, duty follow from a principle of gratitude. God will not only love obedien believers, but he will take pleasure in loving them, will rest in love to them. He will be with them as his home. These privileges ar confined to those whose faith worketh by love, and whose love to Jesu leads them to keep his commandments. Such are partakers of the Holy Spirit's new-creating grace.
