What Does The LORD Require of You?...
Posted : 24 Aug, 2011 01:01 AM

Micah chapter 6

With what shall I come before the LORD and bow down before the High God? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old? Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousand rivers of olive oil? Shall I offer my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? He has shown you, O man, what is good.

And what does the LORD require of you?

He requires you to have a heart to hear his word, whatever it declares, then one is to believe with the heart, and mix faith with what was said that is thus faith.

Sounds like your making some kinda brew there Pj.



God requires devotion, obedience to his commandments, and love for the brotherhood. Doesn't get any easier than that till you try to do it of your own free will. Only by the grace of God can you live unto him.

dljrn04,



Again with the �Free Will� thingy! How can you�a Calvinist�mention Free Will�when you claim that it does not exist!



Oh�boy�is SirJames gonna get you!



dljrn04�are you changing your mind about Free Will? You know�that Doubt you sense�may just be The Holy Spirit asking you (of your own Free Will) to come out of your Calvin Induced Trance.

You are fickle, you need to re read. I serve a Almighty, all knowing God who is higher than all men and changes hearts. Who is sovereign and in control of all things.

OH, NO! you guys didn't look up the verses in Micah! Yes, I agree God does require us to be faithful, devoted, and to study HIs Word, but I was also hoping you would finish out the verse and speak to what He says in response to the question.

What Does he LORD require of us?... but to do justly, and to "love mercy", and to walk humbly with our God.

So what God mean that He requires of us to "do things justly", " love mercy", and walk humbly before God? any thoughts into this?

I mean, this is all about what Jesus preached throughout His earthly ministry, and Paul wrote about thorugh his writings.

Well one would need to have a ear to hear the word and obey it just as I said, and you see in the response those that oppose the simplicity of the Gospel, for some proclaim he is not of mercy.
