On the assumption that God is smarter and wiser than me, there are things that he comprehends that, not only do I not comprehend, I'm incapable of comprehension. And on the assumption that he is good, sometimes obedience is what is called for from God. God being both perfectly wise AND perfectly good, while I am imperfect in both those areas. Obedience to him different than obedience to humans. Analogously: you probably do this in all sorts of areas. I suspect if I were to give you a ride in my airplane, you'd defer to my wisdom on how to safely land. Is that deference different than obedience?
