Submission |
I have been told many times, "You are not God." But what the person is
really learning is that they aren't.
Romans 10:3 (KJV):
For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish
their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the
righteousness of God.
So what do you think it means to submit yourself to the righteousness of
God?

Obedience. Keeping the Law. Repentance. In time, a lifetime, one will
come to submit to God.

Self-righteousness is not the Way.

In the meantime you must continue to fight God.

Touché.
Now isn't that something to think about for those who subscribe to Besq's
religion.
:-). Then again, maybe not. :-).

It means that you need to realise that you are totally unrighteous.
Yes that's right, not one jot or tittle of rightness in you. Not even a
thought.
Who is able to walk such a narrow road?
A beggar, that's who.
