How do we know the doctrine of obedience is true?

The doctrine of obedience is grounded in Scripture, particularly in how the Apostle Paul writes in Colossians about the duties of servants and masters. We see that obedience is part of God's design for order and serves as a means of reflecting Christ's own obedience. Jesus perfectly obeyed His Father, serving as the ultimate example for us. His obedience and sacrifice on our behalf reveal the standard of righteousness we are called to emulate. Through Christ, we understand that while our attempts at obedience may be flawed, His perfect obedience grants us acceptance before God. Therefore, we can trust in the doctrine of obedience, not as a means to earn salvation but as a response to the grace we have received.
