God and Jesus love those who keep His word, who keep His commandments. Keeping His word is the same as keeping His commandments or the verses that I will provide below would contradict each other. Jesus said He kept Gods word and that He was sent to spread it. So it shows that to keep God's word is to spread it and to keep His commandments is the same thing. That is why He said ; "As the Father sent me so I send you."

"The man who keeps the commandments he has from me is the man who loves me and the man who loves me will be loved by my Father, I too shall love him and reveal myself to him."

"The man who loves me will keep my word and my Father will love him and we will come and dwell within him."

Jesus said; "I know Him (the Father) and I keep His word"

Don't you think keeping His commandments is the same thing as keeping His word according to these verses and spreading Gods word is keeping it as Jesus showed ?

"Abide in my love. You will abide in my love if you keep my commandments just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in His love."

The commandments are the words of God all the words of God because God commanded the son of man what to say. When God commands you that is His commandment.

Jesus said; "The Father who sent me commanded me what to say and how to speak and since I know His commandment is eternal life what I say is spoken just as He instructed me."

The bread of Life also represents the Spirit of God which is Christ of Jesus , which we all need , but if all we get is the Spirit of God and No Word then we could blow up , as the devil can still walk all over us with No Word

God's Word is Jesus, God's word is the Bible/Scriptures. We need both.

Jesus came as the son of man ,the son of God. The son of God ,as God has said ,is His servant His firstborn or in other words His treasured. The servant of God is God's son and Israel. Anyone who serves the Lord and keeps His covenant becomes a part of Israel and joins the ranks of the son of man.

The son of man is the truth as Jesus said he is. This is why Jesus spoke of the son of man in the third person and why He said the son of man would do the judging but then said we should judge righteously.

The son of man comes eating and drinking in the presence of God and the light of the Most High.

It is written in the prophets; "The Lord is near to everyone who calls upon Him, who calls upon Him in truth."

"Genuine worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth"

The Bible is NOT Jesus and the Bible is NOT God's word . . . ONLY Jesus is the Living Word of God. The Bible is USEFUL (profitable) for instruction and to tell us how to identify and validate Jesus.
