What is your {{{Fruit}}}?

Matthew 7:20-24
20 Wherefore by {{{their fruits}}} ye shall know them.
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but{{{he that doeth the will of my Father}}} which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works
23 And then will I profess unto them, {{{I never knew you}}}: depart from me, {{{{ye that work iniquity}}}.
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and {{{doeth them}}}, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

Fruit is your obediance to ten lines of text inscribed in stone.

Christ himself summed them up into two…
(Luke 10:25-28 KJV)
[25] And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? [26] He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou? [27] And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself. [28] And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

2 John 5–11
5 And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
6 And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.
7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.
9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
11 for he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

Love for God (Commandments 1–4): These address reverence, worship, honoring the Sabbath, and avoiding idols.

Love for Neighbor (Commandments 5–10): These dictate how people treat one another.

What Christ on the cross blotted out are the 600+ codes and ordinances written by men sitting in Moses’s seat. The scribes of the Pharisees, straining over a gnat while swallowing a camel.

1 John 4:2–6
2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: {{{{Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: }}}}
3 And {{{{every spirit that confesseth {{not}} that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and {{this is that spirit of antichrist,}} whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. }}}}
4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because {{{greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. }}}
5 {{{{They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.}}}}
6 {{{{We are of God: {{he that knoweth God heareth us;}} {{he that is not of God heareth not us.}} {{{{Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.}}}}
