Thorough Obedience
Galatians 1:15-16
But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,…


A soul sincerely obedient will not pick and choose what commands to obey and what to reject, as hypocrites do. An obedient soul is like a crystal glass with a light in the midst, which shines forth through every part thereof. A man sincerely obedient lays such a charge upon his whole man; as Mary the mother of Christ did upon all the servants at the feast, "Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it." Eyes, ears, hands, heart, lips, legs, body, and soul, do you all seriously and affectionately observe whatever Jesus Christ says unto you, and do it.

(T. Brooks.)
