Question: If your mom says, ‘Clean your room,’ what does that mean?
Answer:
Do it now or get in trouble: “ Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother”—this is the first commandment with a promise: “so that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth” (Ephesians 5:1-3, NRSV).
Jesus said you must be born again (John 3:7). To refuse Jesus Christ is to disobey God.
God gave you directions: “Look unto Me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else” (Isaiah 45:22).
