Actively keeping God’s moral law
The author Zoe Cannon argues that a relationship with God requires both faith and obedience to His moral law. Writing for The Message, Cannon notes that the biblical principle of the obedience of faith serves as a primary obligation for believers.
Cannon states that ignorance of God is the underlying cause of moral deviations. The article suggests that modern culture has become desensitized to moral law through the acceptance of flawed norms and a desire for instant gratification. This shift has resulted in a loss of unity between faith and reason.
