“Why don’t you do what I say?”  

Big Idea: Agreement with Jesus is not the same as allegiance to Jesus.  

• Agreement is most often intellectual or emotional. 
• Allegiance, is relational and action-oriented.  

“Comes to Me”  - “Hears My Words”  - “Follows Me” 

How To Move from Agreement to Allegiance: 

1. Get to Know His Voice  
2. Identify the Competing Voice 

• Voice of the Flesh 
• Voice of the World 
• Voice of the Enemy 
• Voice of Wounds 

3. Name the “But” 

Next step.  

• Write your answer to Jesus' question, “Why don’t you do what I say?”
