If you had a one-on-one meal with Jesus, what would you discuss?
I would ask Jesus why is there so much suffering in the world. He said let the little children come unto me for of such is the kingdom of heaven. If so then why do so many suffer such terrible lives. I was one of them. Why.

If you had a one-on-one meal with Jesus, what would you discuss?
I think that I would ask how I could be more like Him. Maybe we could talk about the state of this world, and all the evil there is in it.

Jesus link intimacy to him with obedience to him by our love to serve and help each other. Doing the father`s will looking out for others. God said If you love me, you will do my will, and by your works others will know that you serve me sincerely in spirit and in truth. Blessed be his name.

I would discuss how I can serve him better and do the things the Father ask. I will also ask him to help me by cleansing me from all my sins and teaching me to be more like him with patience, love and trust.

If such a marvellous blessing would be true and I could have a meal with Jesus, then I will discuss nothing, I just will listen, and adore him, lying on the floor because I am a sinner and very much blessed to have dinner with Him

How does Jesus link intimacy to him with obedience to him? a New commandment?
If you really love someone and know this person very well, surely you will live in such a way that is pleasing to that special person. Jesus asked the same, If someone says he ''she'' loves Jesus, then he ''she'' must live in such a way that is pleasing to Him.

How does Jesus link intimacy to him with obedience to him? a New commandment?
This is not a new commandment, basically its the key part of the relationship paid for by the blood of Jesus. Jesus died so that we can have this kind of relationship with God, so make full use of it... We are to become like Jesus and the best way is to study carefully his works, words and character and pattern lour daily lives after the same. Develop a dependency on Jesus and have a very strong relationship with the Lord, seeking him FIRST in all things, makinf him the source of all things. This is intimacy, this is what Jesus means when he said `the father and i will come and live in you Transformation befins from within and thereby streams of living waters flow.. remember Jesus is the life the source and the way. God bless u all.

How does Jesus link intimacy to him with obedience to him? a New commandment?
To have intimacy with Jesus is to have a love-love relationship with him. You love him, and he loves you. Both of you are friends, trusting one another. Jesus says that the one who has his commandments, and keeps them, that is the one who loves him. He assures us that both him, and his Father would love such a person too. This is the essence of what he meant that...If you love me, keep my Commandments, and the Commandment is To love God with all your heart, mind, strength, and to love one another. By this people shall know that we belong to Him.In summary, therefore : To love Jesus Christ, and to obey his Commands are synonymous.
