Isn't funny how we always say "God, I just don't get it!" or "I don't understand!" It's true, we won't understand everything. But there are many things we can comprehend. God lays these things out for us plain and simple.
What better comparison to obeying God's laws than the comparison of obeying man's laws? We are so cautious to obey the law, to do right by it's commands, and not to go against it. How much more important, then, is it to obey God's laws?
"Do you want to be on good terms with the government? Be a responsible citizen and you'll get on just fine, the government working to your advantage. But if you're breaking the rules right and left, watch out."
-Romans 13:3-4 (theMESSAGE)
It's so plain and simple that a tard could pick it up within at least 5 minutes... maybe...
I believe that God loves object lessons and illustrations. Jesus taught in many different illustrations and stories. I think it's one of the most simplistic, yet effective, ways to tell someone about how to live for God. Look for these illustrations in the Bible, think on them, decode them, and then apply them.
