HOW IMPORTANT IS IT?

CENTRALITY OF OBEDIENCE ROMANS 1:5 PURPOSE OF GOSPEL PREACHING – OBEDIENCE OF FAITH 1 PETER 1:2 CHOSEN ACCORDING TO THE FOREKNOWLEDGE OF GOD THE FATHER, BY MEANS OF SANCTIFICATION BY THE SPIRIT, INTO OBEDIENCE AND INTO SPRINKLING OF THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST HEBREWS 5:9 CHRIST SAVES THOSE WHO ARE OBEYING HIM

WHAT IS OBEDIENCE? OBEY = TO HEAR UNDER IT IS A LEARNED SKILL HEBREWS 5:7-8 HUMILITY IS THE DOORWAY TO OBEDIENCE PHILIPPIANS 2:8 WITHOUT HUMILITY WE CANNOT ENTER THE KINGDOM MATTHEW 18:1-4

HUMILITY PHILIPPIANS 2:6-8 JESUS CHOSE TO BE UNDER [A SLAVE] TO BELONG TO ANOTHER HUMILITY SAYS: I AM NEEDED, I AM NOT HERE TO PLEASE MYSELF, BUT GOD I AM NEEDY, I CANNOT GO IT ALONE, I NEED TO BE UNDER, I NEED TO BE LED, I NEED TO FOLLOW THE LORD JESUS

OBEDIENCE FOLLOWS HUMILITY OBEDIENCE IS NOT NORMAL IT IS LEARNED THROUGH PRESSURE, STRESS THE TEMPTATION IS TO PANIC AND RUN, OR TAKE OVER AND TRY TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM HUMILITY WAITS FOR GOD HUMILITY HAS NO PRIVATE PROBLEMS HUMILITY NEEDS SELF-CONTROL

HUMILITY LOOKS UP IT ASKS: CAN GOD BE TRUSTED IN THIS SITUATION? WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO? IT WAITS FOR DIRECTION IT GIVES US THE FREEDOM TO SAY NO TO SELF AND YES TO GOD

UNDER LEADS TO HEARING WHEN I COME UNDER THE LORD JESUS I AM ENABLED TO OBEY HIS COMMANDS LUKE 6:6-10 I AM FREE TO CHOOSE TO DO WHAT HE SAYS I CANNOT DO IT ON MY OWN BUT I CAN CHOOSE TO DO

THE IMPORTANCE OF LISTENING LIFE OF OBEDIENCE – WALKING IN THE SPIRIT LIKE DRIVING A CAR: LISTEN TO A NAVIGATOR LISTEN TO A GPS

OBEDIENCE IS NOT ….. COMPLIANCE [DOING BECAUSE I HAVE TO] IT IS FREELY CHOOSING TO DO WHAT IS REQUIRED OF ME NOT A QUESTION OF WILL I OR WILL I NOT DO IT [NOT THAT FORM OF CHOICE] IT IS HOW I DO WHAT I HAVE TO DO INWARD CHOICE, NOT OUTWARD COMFORMITY AND INWARD REBELLION

JOHN AND OBEDIENCE JOHN USES THE PHRASE “KEEP [MY] WORD” JOHN 14:15, 21, 23, 15:9-10 KEEP = GUARD, PROTECT, HOLD [VALUE] WE GUARD, VALUE THE LORD’S WORD BY DOING IT ONLY THOSE WHO LOVE THE LORD WILL KEEP HIS WORD ONLY THOSE WHO KEEP HIS WORD WILL REMAIN IN HIS LOVE
