  Contemporary pagan example:Rib-Addu to Pharaoh to love Pharaoh is to serve him and to remain faithful to the status of vassal. Johannine examples: If you love Me, keep my commandments (14:15) He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him. (14:21) If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and my Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. He who does not love Me does not keep My words. . . .. (14:23) If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love. . . (15:10) By this we know that we [have come to] know Him, if we keep His commandments. He who says I know Him, and does not keep His commandments, is a liar and the truth is not in him. (1 John 2:3-4) Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. (1 John 2:15)
