First, please note that the moral code, such as the Ten Commandments, is established by God as a benefit for humanity, not as a punishment. Think of the code as the manufacturer's instructions for operating your car - you would be wise to follow them, as the maker knows more about the auto than you do. Therefore, everyone should follow the moral code - it would produce a more just, humane, and peaceful society.
Christians follow the moral code for that reason and also out of gratitude for what God has done for them in Jesus Christ. Obedience is a way of saying "Thank you" to God - it does not earn God's love but shows that you are grateful for that gift.
In other words, Christians follow the moral code because it glorifies God.
Deuteronomy 6:4-7. Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD. And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart. And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up
