In our time, however, obeying God's commands often is ignored, dismissed, or glossed over. Why? Because it confronts our sin. It challenges our lives.
Yet God commands us to obey, not because he is on a power trip, but rather because he wants what's best for us. Disobey those commands and quickly you will see how much sadness you can experience. God's commands are not to box us in but for our protection.
