Charles Ellicott Commentary John 14:24

"He that loveth me not keepeth not my words: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father`s who sent me." — John 14:24 (ASV)

He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings.—He has shown in the previous verse how the Father and the Son can take up their abode in the hearts of the believers. He now shows how they could not be manifested to the hearts of the world. He who does not love Christ does not keep His word, and that word is the Father’s. He has rejected the love of God which is revealed in the Son, and has Himself closed the channels of communion with God. God cannot dwell with him because there is in him nothing which can be receptive of the Divine Presence.
