Crucible

The first thing God asks of His people is to know and recognize Him. He is the source of all laws and revelations, representing God in both His spiritual and physical worlds. Anyone who achieves this knows true goodness; anyone who doesn't is lost, no matter how many good deeds they do. Everyone who reaches this high station must follow all His commands. These two duties—recognition and obedience—go hand in hand. One is not enough without the other. This is God's decree.
