Introduction
Greeting
The idea of “total commitment” has taken a back seat in more modern times.
People today don’t seem to want to be committed totally to much of anything and that includes religion.
However, when one obeys the gospel they make an agreement with God to be totally committed to Him, having counted the cost of such, weighing the alternatives, and agreeing to God’s terms.
The reality is, as we look at out first point...
The Lord Demands Total Commitment
The Lord has never minced words concerning such.

Truths Concerning Total Commitment
Total commitment should expect adversity.
There is just too much sinfulness outside us, among us, and even in us to expect anything less.
If we are only committed to being in the church of Christ as long as we get our way we are not committed to Christ but to ourselves.
Total commitment understands who it’s serving.
If we are only committed to being in the church of Christ as long as we get our way we are not committed to Christ but to ourselves.
Our commitment to God understands we are here to serve God not our parents, spouses, elders, preachers, brothers, sisters, friends...
Now in serving God “whole heartily” we will minister to all those just mentioned but only as far as God demands.
God knows the difference between commitment and non-commitment.
You can trick people and make them “think” you are totally committed to God, but you can’t trick God.
Rv 3:
God knows if you are “wholly committed to Him.
Summery
The truth is you can “do” what is right according to the law of Christ and still not be committed to God whole heartily.

Conclusion
The rewards of total commitment make any sacrifices you make well worth it.
“Rise above mediocrity, and follow the Lord with your whole heart.”
