In this common concept, obedience is divorced from God's purposes and objectives. Obedience focuses on respecting authority. Some Christians think obedience is not concerned with God's purposes. Understanding the requirements is unimportant. Obeying the requirements in a manner that accomplishes God's purposes is unimportant.
Faith is reduced to compliance with a check list.
Jesus' concept of obedience focused on serving. Jesus gave no parable about a spiritual ACT or SAT test to be given on the judgment day. Jesus did couple the judgment with serving. He said they failed to minister to his physical needs. Check lists fill us with a sense of failure and fear.
