Simply Obey! Series

In John Chapter 8:11, Jesus said to the woman, “Go and sin no more….” She was about to be stoned to death for her adulterous act. But, in his compassion, Jesus forgave her and encouraged her never to let this happen again…He said, “Go and Sin No More.”

Her obedience will keep her from future condemnation. Our obedience will do the same for us.

As Dr. Mike Murdock said, “Obedience is the only proof of our faith in God.”

God is not a man; He cannot lie; therefore, whenever he speaks, obedience is the only expected response.

Furthermore, Jesus said, “Why do you call me Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say.” (Luke 6:46).

Learning obedience is absolutely necessary for Christlikeness. (Hebrews 5:8). As obedient children, we do not fashion ourselves according to the former lust in ignorance, but we willingly follow "In his steps."

Jesus, our example, humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. (Philippians 2:5-11). He purposed to do the father’s will regardless of the cost.

If we obey and sin no more, the reproach will be taken away, and righteousness will exalt the nations.

We have this option—"Sin unto death or obedience unto righteousness.” (Romans 6:16).
