New Testament Commands
There are 1,050 commands in the New Testament for Christians to obey. Due to repetitions we can classify them under about 800 headings. They cover every phase of man’s life in his relationship to God and his fellowmen, now and hereafter. If obeyed, they will bring rich rewards here and forever; if disobeyed, they will bring condemnation and eternal punishment. They are not to be confused with the 10 commandments which were abolished with the law of Moses (note, Acts 15:24; see <TOPIC:Old and New Covenant Contrasts, Eighty-five>). They are divided below under their various headings.

2. Those who are thirsty
3. Those who will come
All people are thus invited to come and partake of the water of life freely.
