Certainly
OBEDIENCE IS A SUPER HIGH PRIORITY WITH GOD
AS
Abraham offering Isaac up was an illustration.
However, I believe the authors are correct . . .
FAITH IS A HIGHER PRIORITY
and an over focus on obedience vs RELATIONSHIP results in
the SEDUCTIVE DEADLINESS OF
RELIGION.
Wouldn't you consider both faith and obedience acts of the will in response to the authority of God? Since faith is an act of obedience and obedience an act of faith how can you set one to a higher priority than the other?
