Who Is King

The document contrasts two choices in life - pleasing God or pleasing self. It notes that choosing to please God by living according to Christ, the gospel, and scripture leads to an easier life where habits get easier, as referenced in Matthew 11:30. In contrast, living a feeling-oriented life focused on pleasing self goes against human nature, leads to a harder life where habits get harder as the flesh is against God, and stems from desires of the heart.
