Are the TEN COMMANDMENTS still valid?
What is a commandment?
The English thesaurus gives the following definition: directive, order, demand, charge, instruction, mandate and decree. All these are correct.
I would like us to talk about the commandments that are found in Exodus 20, the very commandments that were written by God’s finger. This is the only part of the Bible, written directly by God.
Today, many Christians believe that these commandments were written for those in the Old Testament times. Some say that these commandments were nailed to the cross with Christ.
Growing up, we were made to know the Ten Commandments by heart at school. Now that has been removed and we now find sex, pornography, violence and crime have become accepted as normality in television, movies, music and the internet. What I find more disturbing is that, some Christians find nothing wrong with these.
We are lost without the Ten Commandments. Here is why:
We need them to tell whether you are sinning.
They are like a mirror.
Jesus said, “If you love me then keep my commandments”
So we need the Commandments of God because they are about loving Him and fellow man. The two greatest Commandments.
Do you think that the Ten Commandments are still valid?
Do you keep the Ten Commandments and why?
Do you know that if you break one of the Commandments, you have broken them all?
