    The Letter That Kills Our Children

    June 21, 2018 / Comments Off on The Letter That Kills Our Children

    It's proven that the earlier we introduce children to the alphabet we prepare them for success in school. I believe the Bible speaks of another "letter" we'd best prepare our children with a proper understanding of…. It's a Letter with the capability to embitter and kill the spirit of any child or adult for that matter, that demands perfection, and accepts no excuses. What letter is this? The Law… First, Understand The Law Isn't "Bad" Romans 7-8 and Galatians 3-5 harmonize well to explain that the law isn't bad, it is by all means necessary and helpful. "This is a covenant not of written laws, but of the Spirit. The…

    The Null Opportunity

    December 10, 2012 / 1 Comment

    The preceding blogs on the Ten Commandments (1) have precisely articulated how God expects us to live; nevertheless, we have as individuals and as a nation have primarily chosen to say “no thanks” to God’s offer of rescue from the bondage of sin, its destruction in our lives while on Earth, and its promise of eternal death after we die thus identifying with the Biblical definition of a fool (Psalms 14:1). Nevertheless, God so loved the world, even in its deplorable fallen state, so much that He sent His unique son to provide a way back to Himself (John 3:16,17. Romans 5:8. 1 Corinthians 15:3,4. Ezekiel 18:31,32. Ezekiel 11:19,20). However,…

    The First Opportunity

    November 20, 2012 / Comments Off on The First Opportunity

    The First Commandment states that we are not to have any God other than the one true God (Exodus 20:3). You may say that you have not violated this commandment for you believe that Jesus Christ is God.  Well, so do the demons, and they tremble in fear of Him (James 2:19. Acts 19:15).

    The Second Opportunity

    October 22, 2012 / Comments Off on The Second Opportunity

    The Second Commandment states that we are not to make, bow to or serve images created to represent God (i.e., an idol) (Exodus 20:4-6). You may say that you did not violate this commandment, for you have no images that you worship.

    The Third Opportunity

    September 24, 2012 / 1 Comment

    The Third Commandment states that we are not to use the name of the Lord in vain (Exodus 20:7). To use the Lord’s name in vain is to use it flippantly (i.e., to take it lightly without thinking), profanely (i.e., to treat God whose name is holy with irreverence), or deceitfully (i.e., to be dishonest in invoking the name of God).

    The Fourth Opportunity

    August 27, 2012 / Comments Off on The Fourth Opportunity

    The Fourth Commandment states that we are to remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy (Exodus 20:8-11). To keep something holy simply means to set it apart (Leviticus 20:26). That is, on the Sabbath we are to cease from the things that we do the other six days of the week and rather do things that bring glory and honor to God (Ezekiel 20:12). So, have you set apart one day of the week where you cease doing your normal routines and rather spend time honoring God? If you cannot say “Amen”, Say “Oh, Me!”

    The Fifth Opportunity

    July 23, 2012 / Comments Off on The Fifth Opportunity

    The Fifth Commandment states that we honor our father and mother so that our days may live long in the land that God has given us (Exodus 20:12). This is the first of God’s commandments to contain a promise (Ephesians 6:2,3). To “honor” in the original Hebrew language includes the qualities of love, affection, gratitude, obedience, and respect.  Through honoring our parents, we first learn to honor all that are in authority over us. If children do not learn to honor their parents, then they will likely not honor any in authority. Are you ensuring that your children honor their parents so that they will grow up honoring the law of…

    The Sixth Opportunity

    June 25, 2012 / 1 Comment

    The Sixth Commandment states that we are not to murder  (Exodus 20:13). To murder is the intentional killing of a human being under the wrong motives and circumstances, which includes taking your own life (i.e., suicide) or that of a baby while in the mother (i.e., abortion anytime after conception (1)). This does not include the killing of humans in self-defense, national defense (e.g., war), capital punishment (Genesis 9:6), or unintentional killing of a human (Numbers 35:11). Furthermore, it does not include the killing of animals for food or clothing, etc.  While many of us would say that we have never committed murder, nevertheless, the Bible states that if you…

    The Seventh Opportunity

    May 21, 2012 / 1 Comment

    The Seventh Commandment states that we are not to commit adultery (Exodus 20:14). When God made the first man Adam He saw that it was not good for him to be without a companion (1) (Genesis 2:18). However, no animal was worthy to be called the helpmate or wife of the man (Genesis 2:20). Therefore, God put the first man Adam to sleep and from his side took cells from which he made a woman, and Adam named her Eve (Genesis 2:21-23. Genesis 3:20). This is the pattern for the nuclear family on Earth – one male and one female united for life (Genesis 2:24). Not two males or two…

    The Eighth Commandment states that we are not to steal (Exodus 20:15). You may say I have not robbed a bank or held someone up; therefore, I am not guilty of breaking this commandment. Have you ever misrepresented your time on a timesheet, taken supplies from work, cheated on your taxes, not reported being undercharged, or published someone’s works without attribution (i.e., committed plagiarism), etc.? (1 Peter 4:15) If You cannot say “Amen,” say “Oh Me!”
