obedience

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." Genesis 1: 1. Not only did God create the heaven and the earth, God also, "created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him, male and female created he them". Genesis 1: 27.

Every person of the whole human race is loved mightily and tenderly by God our Creator. Whatever God has ever done for the human race, he has done out of genuine love, and with an intense desire to see man happy. In the Book, the Bible, our loving heavenly Father and beneficent Creator has revealed unto the human race His divine will.

Everything God has ever said to us in His Holy Book has been said for our own good, and is conducive to our happiness here in this life, and in the life that is to come. Our obedience, therefore, to God's holy will as revealed in the Bible, is for our own personal happiness and eternal welfare.
