Honor Your Father And Mother, Part 1 of 3 (The Ten Commandments)

August 3, 2020

Long ago, God gave the Ten Commandments as a blueprint for living. Our failure to follow commandment number five is a big reason for the dismal state of many families. In this message we learn an important key to having happy and stable homes. Our parents are not perfect, but we are called to honor them, nonetheless.

When You’ve Been Wronged
Conflict in relationships is inevitable, but healing and reconciliation often is not. Time and again we've tried every option and failed, and all we are left with is a load of guilt and pain. Pastor Erwin Lutzer shows how the blessing the Lord gives to those who suffer unjustly is worth the pain involved. He also illustrates the need to leave our broken relationships in the hands of God and move forward in our lives toward freedom.

As Creator, God sets the rules. He decreed that murder violates one of His prime commandments and must be repaid accordingly. And since our justice system often fails to do this, life loses the value God has placed upon it. Will God set this right?

A central commandment of the Law of God is the prohibition against murder. Yet hundreds of people are killed every year in each of our major cities. Life is cheap and gets cheaper when convicted killers never pay the price God commanded. What does God think about this?

Murder: it’s now so common that we often aren’t fazed by it much anymore. But the taking of innocent life breaks one of the cardinal commandments of God. And since Roe versus Wade, that commandment has been broken untold millions of times.

If you’ve ever watched a professional athlete, you know that eventually they need to take a break. We, like athletes, need rest, and God commanded that we should take that rest every week. The question is, should it be on Saturday or Sunday? And do the regulations of the Jewish Sabbath carry over to Sunday?
July 28, 2020
God made it clear that all of us need to observe a day of rest. The concept is so important that He made it into one of the Ten Commandments. But now, Sunday is just another day to shop, work, or be on the move: not a day for reflection, meditation, and prayer. What does the Sabbath have to do with us?

A century ago, British Olympian Eric Liddell shocked the world by refusing to run on Sunday. Eric was made famous in the movie “Chariots of Fire,” holding fast to his conviction that the Lord’s Day was sacred, and not to be used for sport. These days, many of us use Sunday for watching football, running errands, or even working extra hours. Have we gone off track?

When someone sues you for slander, you might be fined for defaming a good name. But what’s the penalty for slandering God? The commandment to not take His name in vain goes to the core of His nature, and to the heart of respecting Him as Creator. Do you know how important His name really is?

When famous celebrities’ names are dragged through the mud, they sue for slander. But those who worry about their own names are often careless about how they use God’s name. Still, God holds His name in such high regard that He made a commandment that it not be taken in vain.

Christians know that God’s name is holy, and is not to be misused by swearing, cursing, or improper oath-taking. Keeping His name set apart was so important to God that He wrote a command about it with His finger on a tablet of stone.

God’s prohibition of graven images was for our own good as well as for His glory. However innocuous, any image of God can become an idol, and God is firmly against idolatry. How serious is this? Can we use objects such as crosses, rosaries, and icons in our worship?
