How does Jesus link intimacy to him with obedience to him?
If we come to love him with our whole hearts, minds, souls and spirits we can love ourselves and others. Because Jesus is love, if he abides in us, then we can obey his command to love one another.

If you had a one-on-one meal with Jesus, what would you discuss?
I would discuss his love for me. I would want to know how I can come to love him as he loves me. I would discuss how much I long to be just like him and how can I come to that place of total and complete surrender and commitment to him

How does Jesus link intimacy to him with obedience to him?
From the scriptures, "...no one can reach the Father without passing through me..." Indicates a linnk for intimacy to him; "...love your neibour as you love yourself..." a commandment and requires obedience

If you had a one-on-one meal with Jesus, what would you discuss?
First,I would thank him for all his love and His many blessings.I would thank Him for protecting my family everyday and night.Then I would ask him why do He allow good people to die in the hands of evil.Why precious babies are born sick and why is it that my ancestors had it so,so hard.I truely thank Him for dying on the cross for our sins,but there are so many questions,but my mom once told me to never question the work of the Lord.

Does His name really matter? The Scriptures state that His name has great power and authority attached to it! So does it matter if the fallowing is used as His name... Jesus or Yahweh or Yahwashwah or Yeshua or Yashua or ???? Didnt He, Himself, say that He was going to get a new name?

Rev. 3:20

Jesus shows some rather interesting things in Rev.3:20: 1. This was part of His messages to the seven churches[General message first]

2. He is knocking at our door/heart/mind of all members of the seven churches [Private/Personal message next]

3. We first have to be aware of His knock(This can be unheard due to cares of life; unwillingness to live according to the commandments; etc.

4. Once we are aware of the knocking, we have the choice of opening our door/heart/mind toJesus ....... or we can choose not to open the door, to our eternal hurt.

5.Jesus states that once we open the door/heart/mind to Him, His intention is to enter into a personal, intimate relationship with us.

Everything thus revolves around us......our awareness of Jesus and our response to Him.

He is definitelydoing His bit...how are we doing  with ours?
