Conclusion

In conclusion,  we have all disobeyed our parents before on more than one occasion, and yes you get in trouble for it and we are punished, but that trouble, that punishment is nothing compared to the eternal punishment of death and judgment and suffering we are promised for our disobedience. We are a disobedient people, it is who we are, and that disobedience has only brought pain and death. From the first man, Adam we were made sinners and disobedient and death was upon us. So God sent us a second man , the last Adam, a new head of our nation, Jesus Christ to show that we can obey God rules and law and receive his Grace. By accepting the father and Obeying him to the death at the cross, Christ gave us the Free Gift of grace. Grace that goes farther than any sin and wickedness. For That is all God see’s when he see you he see’s the grace he has given you for following his us and accepting that he bore your sins and died for you. God gives you an amazing Gift. All he ask is for you to obey. the question is Can you do it? you are see as Christ in God’s eyes. Christ obeyed, will you?
