I was once asked what I thought was the greatest problem facing the church. I answered that it was what it has always been: “Self-willed men.” The very term “self-will” ought to help us to see how evil it is. Chapters such as the one before us today are loaded with examples of the features—and evils—of self-will. See how many you can note. Learn from this that it makes sense for the Bible to teach that we cannot be self-willed if we want to please God (2 Peter 2:10).
