Selective obedience: buffet style Christianity
I recommend reading Mark Rathel’s commentary on the lesson, “Do you obey in faith?”. He does a good job of relating other scriptures to Abraham’s task to sacrifice Isaac, such as Heb. 11:19, and John 19:17.
In reference to modern day believers, Rathel uses the term “selective obedience”. For example, Saul demonstrated selective obedience in 1 Sam 15:9. Perhaps you can use an illustration of eating from a buffet in Step 3 of the lesson. The video is a bit long, so use the points you want to make, and don't show the video?
