Is obeying God worth it? 7/15/2007
What are the benefits of obedience to God. The Pharisees
in Jesus' day obeyed the law, but for all the wrong reasons.
God looks at your heart. God wants obedience that flows
out of love for him.
God has not hidden the secret of obedience. The Lord has
already told you what is good, and this is what he requires:
to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with
your God.
