Of course, complying with that command is one of the ways we serve Him.

And do you do that because you've had a change or heart, or because it's commanded (i.e., works based salvation). It's complicated, but simple for those pure in heart.

...I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the one to come...

...they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.

works based salvation
.......................................
Works-based salvation is a fiction concocted by the so-called Reformers to convince the “Sheeple” that acts of lawlessness and sin forbidden by God and His Church, whether committed in their past or in their future, or any of their other failures to do what God and His Church have commanded, would have no adverse consequences relative to their eternal salvation. In other words the “cheap-grace” heresy of Sola Fide was promulgated which has lured countless souls to perdition over the past 500 years. See Paul’s Second Epistle to Timothy, Chapter 4.
