22 And Samuel said, "Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

29 But Peter and the apostles answered, "We must obey God rather than men.

32 And we are witnesses to these things, and so is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him."

8 Although he was a Son, he learned obedience through what he suffered;9 and being made perfect he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him,

15 "If you love me, you will keep my commandments.

23 Jesus answered him, "If a man loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.

3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.

21 Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God;22 and we receive from him whatever we ask, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him.

46 "Why do you call me Lord, Lord,' and not do what I tell you?

20 My son, keep your father's commandment, and forsake not your mother's teaching.

17 He who heeds instruction is on the path to life, but he who rejects reproof goes astray.

1 "And if you obey the voice of the LORD your God, being careful to do all his commandments which I command you this day, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth.

29 Oh that they had such a mind as this always, to fear me and to keep all my commandments, that it might go well with them and with their children for ever!

33 You shall walk in all the way which the LORD your God has commanded you, that you may live, and that it may go well with you, and that you may live long in the land which you shall possess.

19 Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.

19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by one man's obedience many will be made righteous.

20 Law came in, to increase the trespass; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more,

1 I appeal to you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.

2 Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

11 Never flag in zeal, be aglow with the Spirit, serve the Lord.

14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.

1 Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.

1 Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.2 Therefore he who resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment.

32 so that by God's will I may come to you with joy and be refreshed in your company.

11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

14 As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance,

27 And he answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself."

27 "But I say to you that hear, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.

3 and keep the charge of the LORD your God, walking in his ways and keeping his statutes, his commandments, his ordinances, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that you may prosper in all that you do and wherever you turn;

44 Thou didst deliver me from strife with the peoples; thou didst make me the head of the nations; people whom I had not known served me.

16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
