If you do not plan to live the Christian life totally committed to knowing your God and to walking in obedience to Him, then don’t begin, for this is what Christianity is all about. It is a change of citizenship, a change of governments, a change of allegiance. If you have no intention of letting Christ rule your life, then forget Christianity; it is not for you.

I have one desire now – to live a life of reckless abandon for the Lord, putting all my energy and strength into it.
– Elisabeth Elliot –
God doesn’t call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him so completely that we are unafraid to put ourselves in situations where we will be in trouble if He doesn’t come through.
– Francis Chan –
Obedience is the crown and honor of all virtue.
– Martin Luther –
Obedience is the greatest commentary upon the Bible—Do, and thou shalt know.
– Theodore Monod –
Doers of the Word are the best hearers.
– Thomas Watson –
My biggest fear, even now, is that I will hear Jesus’ words and walk away, content to settle for less than radical obedience to Him.
– David Platt –
There is not a command God gives His children for which He does not provide the enablement for obedience.
– AB Simpson –
Does it make sense to pray for guidance about the future if we are not obeying in the thing that lies before us today? How many momentous events in Scripture depended on one person’s seemingly small act of obedience! Rest assured: Do what God tells you to do now, and, depend upon it, you will be shown what to do next.
– Elisabeth Elliot –
