“DEMAND OF THE DECALOGUE – Part 2”

Monday, February 24, 2025

Key Verse

“And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these” (Mark 12:31).
Text —Exodus 20:12-17

Message

Today, we conclude our study on the Decalogue. The six commandments on the second table relate to our duties to other people in the society. Obedience to them will help us to live peacefully with other people. Hence Matthew Henry said, “The laying up of God’s oracles in our hearts will be of excellent use to us in all our conduct.”

The fifth commandment requires children to obey and honour their parents. Parents give directions to children. Obedience to this law makes them live long. The sixth prohibits murder including suicide and abortion. Life is given by God and nobody can replace it. The seventh forbids all forms of sexual immorality and every kind of behaviour that promotes lust such as pornography. The eighth is against stealing, pilfering or robbing. The ninth forbids being a false witness, telling lies and deceiving other people. The tenth is against covetousness, being not satisfied with what you have and desiring to possess what belongs to others. The diverse problems in our society today result from man’s disobedience to these commandments. Repent if you are guilty of any.
