Obedience
Ye shall walk after
Jehovah your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice,
and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.
- Deuteronomy 13:4
But this thing I
commanded them, saying, Hearken unto my voice, and I will be your God, and ye
shall be my people; and walk ye in all the way that I command you, that it may
be well with you. -
Jeremiah 7:23
Who gave Jacob for
a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not Jehovah? he against whom we have
sinned, and in whose ways they would not walk, neither were they obedient unto
his law. - Isaiah
42:24
This is the end of
the matter; all hath been heard: fear God, and keep his commandments; for this
is the whole duty of man.
- Ecclesiastes 12:13
But thanks be to
God, that, whereas ye were servants of sin, ye became obedient from the
heart to
that form of teaching whereunto ye were delivered; and being made free from sin,
ye became servants of righteousness.
(Romans 6:17-18)
Let every soul be
in subjection to the higher powers: for there is no power but of God; and the
powers that be are ordained of God.
- Romans 13:1
For though we walk
in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh (for the weapons of our
warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the casting down of
strongholds), casting down imaginations, and every high thing that is exalted
against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the
obedience of Christ; and being in readiness to avenge all disobedience, when
your obedience shall be made full.
(2 Corinthians 10:3-6)
Wherefore girding
up the loins of your mind, be sober and set your hope perfectly on the grace
that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; as children of
obedience, not fashioning yourselves according to your former lusts in the time
of your ignorance.
(1 Peter 1:13-14)
