Ordinance or Obedience - Part1

Peace, peace, there is no peace. Should peace be purchased for price of change and slavery? Forbid it oh mighty God, give liberty or give me death. We longed for God’s peace but is it the peace that God wants? Or the version of peace that we want. Today we answer the question, which is more important, ordinances or obedience? Are the ordinances of religion not helpful? Not at all, are the structure or the order of worship Sunday morning not needed? No, they are needed, however these things, ordinances of religion are tools, not ordinance. God desires obedience but somehow we hit the wrong balance, because today our Christianity is more of religion, and its rituals and its requirements, rather than freedom in obeying God.
