FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST, WE MUST BE OBEDIENT. GOD GAVE EVERYTHING TO SAVE US FROM OUR SIN AND HE ASKS FOR SO LITTLE IN RETURN! God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And the ransom He paid was not mere gold or silver. It was the precious blood of Jesus Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God. 1 Peter 119 Obedience to GOD is determined, not by words, but by deeds. Talking about righteousness is easy; living righteously is far more difficult, especially in todays temptation-filled world. GOD Almighty has given us instructions a guidebook for righteous living called the Holy Bible. It contains through instructions which, if followed, leads to fulfillment, abundance, and salvation. But, if we choose to ignore GODs commandments and instructions, the results are as predictable as they are tragic. Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. 1 John 2:3 When we behave ourselves as godly men and women, we honor GOD. When we live righteously and according to GODs precepts, He blesses His children. So you must live as God’s obedient children. Don’t slip back into your old ways of living to satisfy your own desires. You didn’t know any better then. But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy. For the Scriptures say, “You must be holy because I am holy.” And remember that the heavenly Father to whom you pray has no favorites. He will judge or reward you according to what you do. So you must live in reverent fear of him during your time as “foreigners in the land.” For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And the ransom He paid was not mere gold or silver. It was the precious blood of Jesus Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God. 1 Peter 1:14-19 Do you seek GODs peace and His blessings? Then obey Him. When you are faced with a powerful temptation open the WORD of GOD and read the instructions for what you are suppose to do. All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness. 2 Timothy 3:16
