Sometimes we make a distinction between “doctrinal matters” and “moral matters.” There is a distinction to be made in regard to the type of command given by God, but there should not be a distinction made concerning the importance of the commandment. The notion that God is not so concerned with the form of our religion, but only that we are a “good” person is false. The notion that we should stop emphasizing “doctrinal matters” such as concepts of authority and their applications and focus primarily on being a “good” person is foolish. The matters are both important, and go hand in hand.
