“You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

The 10 Commandments, Part 4: The Beautiful Truth Of God’s Law

Last updated on: October 12, 2017 at 8:01 am   By Mark Driscoll

Kids sometimes rebel and do foolish things. Rebellious kids—all kids—need laws to guide them and protect them. We might say something like this to our children: “Okay, sweetheart, you need to find clothes and wear them to elementary school. And you, son, need to stop smoking and finish third grade.” Parents—good, loving parents—create these laws to keep their children safe, healthy, and productive. When God gathered his children at the base of Mount Sinai and talked to them and gave... Read more

The 10 Commandments, Part 3: Instructions For The Free Children Of God

Last updated on: October 12, 2017 at 8:01 am   By Mark Driscoll

A few million former slaves were set free from the Egyptians, but God’s people were still living as slaves to their sin: committing adultery, stealing from one another, coveting, and lying. They were not raising their children in the Lord. They were worshiping false gods in addition to the real God. Though they had been set free, they chose to not live free. So God chose to teach them how to live out their newfound freedom. Through the giving of... Read more

The 10 Commandments, Part 2: When God’s Grace Hardens The Heart

Last updated on: October 12, 2017 at 8:01 am   By Mark Driscoll

God had sent Moses to Pharaoh to demand that he let God’s people go so they would be free to worship God. Moses warned Pharaoh that if he would not let God’s people go, God would send punishment in the form of plagues upon the Egyptians. The fact that God kept sending Moses to Pharaoh reveals God’s love, compassion, patience, and kindness toward Pharaoh. Moses kept inviting Pharaoh to submit to the real God and walk away from his own... Read more

The 10 Commandments, Part 1: No Other Gods Before…Who?

Last updated on: October 12, 2017 at 8:01 am   By Mark Driscoll

“You shall have no other gods before me.” –The First Commandment (Exodus 20:3) As the collective memory of Christian heritage and biblical knowledge grow fainter in the mind of Western civilization, the Ten Commandments remain strangely familiar and relevant, albeit mostly in the context of arguments about whether or not public institutions are allowed to put them on display. For God’s people in the Old Testament, the Ten Commandments represented the core of God’s law and his will for humanity.... Read more

Last updated on: October 12, 2017 at 8:01 am   By Mark Driscoll

This is the final part in a series on how the Bible is all about Jesus.
