OBEDIENCE:
NEED FOR

If we are alert enough to hear God’s voice we must not content ourselves with merely “believing” it.… Commands are to be obeyed, and until we have obeyed them we have done exactly nothing at all about them. And to have heard them and not obeyed them is infinitely worse than never to have heard them at all.
