Verse 8

"He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth Jehovah require of thee, but to do justly, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with thy God."

"So at a profound level the answer does call for sacrifice."[20] Micah taught nothing new here. It was the same old story that shines in every word of the Pentateuch. He did not repeal the institution of sacrifice.

"He had nothing new to say with regard to the divine will. Israel had already been given the message long ago and reminded of it regularly."[21]

This verse is often misinterpreted to mean merely "doing good to one's fellow human beings"; and while God's true religion certainly does include that, it is a satanic error to proclaim that, "Nothing more is needed."[22] To be truly forgiven requires acceptance of the revealed will of God and full compliance with the conditions given thereto to the fullest extent of human ability. And, although the grace of God will surely make provision for one who falls short while sincerely striving to do God's will, there is no promise of salvation for the willfully disobedient.
