Written By The Finger of God
You and I are presently living in an age of moral relativism. Moral relativism is the belief that we are free to make up our own rules, according to our own personal preferences. People who hold to this philosophy believe that law is not something that comes from God, but something that we come up with on our own. James Patterson and Peter Kim co-authored a book over 20 years ago titled, The Day America Told The Truth, in which they said we are living in a time when there is “absolutely no moral consensus at all . . . Everyone is making up their own personal moral codes — their own Ten Commandments.” Starting tonight, and continuing for several weeks, I would like for us to spend our time learning more about the God of the Bible and His law, specifically the Ten Commandments. Tonight, I would like for us to begin our study by looking at these commandments, their origination and utilization throughout the Scriptures.
