Jesus said that if we loved Him, we would keep His commandments (John 14:15). He didn't say we would go to church, read the Bible, or do good deeds. We would obey Him. Our obedience is a direct reflection of our love for God. In this message, Dr. Stanley encourages us not to take Christ's sacrifice on the cross for granted. Instead, we ought to commit to obeying Him at every opportunity.

No matter how committed you are to Christ, your loyalty will be tested along the way. In Genesis 22, Abraham faced the most difficult test a father could face. Yet when God called to Abraham, he answered, “Here I am” (Gen. 22:1). Abraham trusted God because he knew that He had final authority. In this message, Dr. Stanley uses Abraham’s story to show us how trials can strengthen our commitment to God.

About Dr. Charles Stanley

Dr. Charles Stanley

September 25, 1932 – April 18, 2023

Dr. Charles F. Stanley was the senior pastor of First Baptist Church Atlanta for more than fifty years. He was also the founder of In Touch Ministries and a New York Times best-selling author, who wrote more than seventy books encouraging people to seek Jesus as their Savior and know Him as their wise and loving Lord. 

Known to audiences around the world through his wide-reaching TV and radio broadcasts, Stanley modeled his 65 years of ministry after the apostle Paul’s message in Acts 20:24: “Life is worth nothing unless I use it for doing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about God’s mighty kindness and love.”
