Do I Really Have To OBEY God Too?
Hebrews 5:9
AND BEING MADE PERFECT, HE BECAME THE AUTHOR OF ETERNAL SALVATION UNTO ALL THEM ***THAT OBEY HIM***;
Genesis 22:18
"And through your descendants all the nations of the earth will be blessed—all because YOU HAVE OBEYED ME
Luke 11:28
Jesus replied, "But even more blessed are all who hear the word of God and PUT IT INTO PRACTICE."
James 1:22–25
But don't just listen to God's word. YOU MUST DO what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.
1 John 5:2–3
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and OBEY HIS COMMANDMENTS
2 John 6
And this is love, that we walk ACCORDING TO HIS COMMANDMENTS; this is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, so that you should walk in it
1 John 2:3–6
And we can be sure that we know him if we OBEY HIS COMMANDMENTS.
Even Jesus had to learn obedience.
"Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from the things which He suffered." (Hebrews 5:8). Jesus learned by experience. When He suffered in Gethsemane and later on Calvary's hill, He experienced something completely foreign to His experiences in heaven, for there is no pain, tears or death there. Of course, being omniscient, Jesus had always known what pain and death was, but had not experienced it until He became a man and suffered.
