Jesus Kept the Commandments

I Can Keep the Commandments Too!

Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ gave us commandments to help us. When Jesus lived on earth, He kept all the commandments. He taught that the most important ones are to love God and love our neighbor—that’s everyone! (See Matthew 22:37–39.) When we obey the commandments, we are showing Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ that we love Them and want to be like Them.
