Do all Christians obey the Bible?
No, not all Christians follow the Bibles teachings. However, most Christians go to the Bible to use it as a source of authority when needed. Some Christians don’t follow the Bible’s teachings because it goes against what they like. For example, if you are part of the LGBTQ+ community and a Christian, you would disobey the Bible when it goes against LGBTQ+ people. Another example is if you like pork, you wouldn’t obey the Bible when it says to not to eat pork, simply because you enjoy it, etc.
