Unless he obeys, a man cannot believe.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Another reminder that actions speak louder than words. If you keep telling someone you’ll do something and don’t you’re liar. If you don’t do anything for someone you love, how much do you love them? If you do everything for the benefit of yourself, who do you care about more?
When you stop doing things contradictary to God’s Word you are telling the Lord, I am going against my sinful natural nature because I love you.
Love and obey because there is no other way to know the Lord.
