When God gave His commandments, the expectation was clear: that they would be obeyed. To reinforce this, God warned His people about the consequences of disobedience, promising blessings if they obeyed and curses if not. However, the false doctrine of “unmerited favor” has completely distorted the Scriptures. According to this teaching popular in many churches, obeying the commandments is seen as a risk, for the individual may be trying to ”deserve” salvation and end up condemned. On the other hand, ignoring the commandments would be proof that the person recognizes they do not deserve it and so salvation is guaranteed. Do not follow the majority just because they are many. The end has already come! Obey while you are alive. | “You have commanded your precepts to be kept diligently.” (Psalm 119:4)
