If obedience is the gospel, then the gospel becomes about what I do instead of what Christ has done.
The gospel is the good news that Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again for our justification.
That’s a proclamation to believe, not a command to perform. The gospel isn’t about us, it’s about Jesus. The gospel is FOR us.
Obedience is the fruit of the gospel, not the gospel itself. We obey because we’ve been saved, not in order to be saved. Confusing the two turns good news into law

You don’t keep the commandments, and you haven’t kept the law.I know this for a fact. No man is justified by law keeping, due to the weakness & sinful nature of the flesh.The law can only expose our sin and the need for a Savior,that’s why God sent His Son to be the propitiation
