Submitting encompasses obedience. Just as my submitting to Christ would encompass my obedience to Him. How can anyone submit to God and refuse to follow His lead.
we'll see. most who are called 'christian' by the world, and think themselves saved, find out on judgment day that the one they submitted to was the enemy and not yahweh, but they were told they were saved,,,,,,
of course, it was the enemy of christ who told them they were saved, and their fellows with them on the wide road to destruction, but they refused to believe or accept that their own family, friends and religious leaders were lying to them, so they remained on the wide road to destruction until too late....
if they had followed yahshua's (Jesus') lead, listened to GOD instead of to man (whether b.g. or the pope or their priest or 'mary') if they had listened to GOD and repented, found the
narrow way to life in JESUS, they would have been saved by HIM. but they continually refuse(d).
