Presented at Curwensville Alliance on 1/16/22 by Pastor Steve Shields.
The Ten Commandments were given by God as a guidebook on life to the Israelites. As we look back at the Ten Commandments that we discussed in detail, we see that God wants us to make Him the priority in our life.
No other gods before Me – your Father knows what you need before you even ask!
Put away idols – destroy them (if you can). Reprioritize your life!
Honor God’s Name – watch how you live as you bear His name.
Remember the Sabbath – make “sabbathing” a verb.
Honor your father and mother – show them their value.
Do not murder – choose love!
Honoring marriage commitments – marriage is designed to show the love, the purity, the faithfulness, and the holiness of God – of Christ and His church.
You shall not steal – it is a matter of trusting God and setting aside greed.
No false testimony – no worthless words. Be a person who values truth.
You shall not covet – be joyful when others are blessed.
God gives us these commandments because He loves us. You can live without these commandments, but you can’t live your best life without them.
The Ten Commandments point to the cross. We cannot keep these commands without Him. They show us we have a need for God.
