And they are a family who makes Satan smile from ear to ear.
THEME: We think obedience is trying to looking like Christ, by placing on the "pre-requisites" of what a Christian looks like upon ourselves and others. It is a sad state of affairs that we think we have the power to fix ourselves. Christ knew we weren't perfect; being a Christian, obedience to God is a process, we BECOME (the word in the original context lends itself to an extended process of time). Obedience isn't looking like Christ, it is surrender pure and simple. It is giving the Sunday smiles up for His restorative grace to change us. We can't, we mustn't think we can or we give into the lie that satan started a long time ago. So surrender already!
