Obedience

"Are we, then, freed from obedience? Yes. We are freed from obeying the law in our own strength, and we are freed from obeying it in order to obtain everlasting life. To say that we must still obey in order to obtain everlasting life is to say we are still under the terms of the old covenant. We are not freed from obedience as a way of walking with God, but we are freed fro mobedience as a means of making ourselves good enough to come to God."


-John Owen, Communion With God, Pg. 122-123
