Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the
kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my
Father who is in heaven. (Mat. 7:21)
Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive
yourselves. Do what it says (James 1:22).
Don't you realize that you become the slave of whatever
you choose to obey? You can be a slave to sin, which leads
to death, or you can choose to obey God, which leads to
righteous living. (Rom. 6:16)
Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as
much as in obeying the voice of the Lord? To obey is
better than sacrifice(1 Sam. 15:22)
This is love for God: to obey his commands (1 John 5:3)

All contained within: Love God with all you have and your
neighbor as yourself.
Only those born again desire to and are able to do these.
The Law cannot help us obeyit only exposes that we are unable
to obey it. (Rom. 7:7)
Anatomy of SinWhy we
Disobey
If obedience is all good, why do we sin?
We are blind to Gods beauty. Something else (an
idol) has captured our highest
affection/desire/passion.
We dont fear God enough.
OK to stain Christs name and lose our testimony.
The flesh/world/satan cause sin. God always
provides escape-we oft choose sin (though it
doesnt rule saved)
We do not abide in Christ thru reading, prayer,
fellowship, discussions, etc.embers grow cold.
