The law of faith Not everyone who claims to be of the faith has faith. And there are those who say they do not have much faith, when, in fact, they do. Though faith has its secrets and mysteries, one thing is certain: those who are of the faith do not have emotions. They take action, obey. Their actions do not depend on how they feel. This is pure obedience. Obedience by faith. Obedience demonstrates, determines and characterizes faith. Take a look at Jesus’ example of faith: “A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, ‘Son, go, work today in my vineyard.’ He answered and said, ‘I will not,’ but afterward he regretted it and went. Then he came to the second and said likewise. And he answered and said, ‘I go, sir,’ but he did not go. Which of the two did the will of his father? They said to Him, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you that tax collectors and harlots enter the kingdom of God before you." Matthew 21.28-31 This means that when evildoers obey the Word of God, they will enter the kingdom of God before many who claim to be of “the faith”. The same also happened with Abraham: "By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going." Hebrews 11.8 Notice that his faith was followed by obedience. Abraham believed in the promise and went out, not knowing where he was going... Do you know why most "Christians" have a cursed life? Because they believe in the Word of God, but do not obey. Disobedience was, is and continues to be the cause of such curses. Curses do not come without cause. And besides, a curse without cause shall not alight, Proverbs 26.2 There is no manifestation of faith without obedience, just like there is no obedience without an act of faith. Get ready to ascend the Mount of Transfiguration. Those who believe, those who represent Peter, James and John, who were chosen by the Lord Jesus, will go up together, in the Same Spirit, in one faith and with one purpose: to seek the Promise of God the Father: …For there the Lord commanded the blessing – life forevermore. Psalm 133.3
