Attention
all earthlings! God is Holy and we
are not. The bad news is that the
penalty for our unholy behavior is
not merely death but eternal death
in hell. The good news is that if we
would acknowledge this and accept
Jesus Christ's forgiveness, we can
be saved. But here's the cosmic
dilemma. We don't want to admit our
unholiness let alone call upon the
Name of the Lord! Therefore, how is
a Supernatural Multi-dimensional
Infinite Holy God going to
communicate this problem to tiny
finite unholy human beings? That's
right! He uses an external teaching
tool called the Ten Commandments.
People the Ten Commandments are not
merely a mode of behavior. They
exist to show us our need of a
Savior. It's God's 10-step testing
procedure designed to reveal His
Holiness and our sinfulness. The 10
tests are, No other gods, No Idols,
No Using God's Name in Vain, No
Breaking the Sabbath, No Dishonoring
Your Parents, No Murder, No
Adultery, No Stealing, No Lying, and
No Coveting. People of God, if we
are ever going to get our society
back on track, then we've got to
remember the purpose of the Ten
Commandments. Why? Because no
external law can change man's
internal heart. And this is what our
country has totally forgotten! What
we need is God! And this is what
God's been trying to remind us in
The Ten Commandments. And people,
I'm telling you, the reason why our
nation is going to hell is because
we're telling God to do the same.
How? By trying to get rid of the Ten
Commandments.
