THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
Clarification of the Ten Commandments is excerpted from the book “Basic Christianity” by John Stott, with permission from Inter-Varsity Press. Mr. Stott's book examines the historical facts on which Christianity stands.
First , our sense of failure depends on how high our standards are.
Second , God concerns himself with the thought behind the deed and with the motive behind the action.
With these two principles in mind, it should prove a healthy exercise to take the Ten Commandments in Exodus 20 as our standard and see how very far short of it every man falls....John Stott
The First Commandment can be violated by an engrossing sport or absorbing hobby. It is not necessary to worship the sun, the moon and the stars to break the First Commandment.
We may say prayers; but do we really pray? The Second Commandment instructs ... It is no good approaching God with our lips if our hearts are far from him infers the Second commmandment.
Taking God's name in vain means more than just words per the Third Commandment We break the Third Commandment when we talk one way and act another.
He made the Sabbath for man, Jesus emphasized about the Fourth Commandment However, the Fourth Commandment is not just for our pleasure.
The Fifth Commandment asks us to look at how often we write or visit our parents Do they need financial support which we could give, but deny them? The Fifth Commandment bids us to concern ourselves with these matters.
Sixth Commandment - if looks could kill, many would kill with a look.
Much to the surprise of most, we have all probably violated the intent of the Sixth Commandment!
The Seventh Commandment also includes all sexual perversions Although men and women are not responsible for a perverted instinct, the Seventh Commandment reminds us they are for its indulgence.
The Eighth Commandment - What the world calls ‘scrounging’ God calls stealing. Paul was not satisfied that a thief should stop stealing; he had to start working, and thus satisfy the Eighth Commandment.
The Ninth Commandment includes all forms of "tittle-tattle". We violate the Ninth Commandment by our silence as well as by our speech.
Civil Law cannot touch us for breaking the Tenth Commandment. What lust is to adultery and temper is to murder, the Tenth Commandment of covetousness is to theft.
