THE TEN COMMANDMENTS: Ancient Words - Timeless Truth: A Series of Sermons
THE TEN A Series of SermonsThe influence of these sacred Words upon the very course of human history is inestimable. These highly revered dictates, received by Moses, represent a unifying moral code accepted by every major world religion. Even those who claim little or no faith at all use these God-given standards as a compass for right vs. wrong. Despite their undeniable imprint and timeless authority, many ask what sort of bearing these ancient Words, recorded thousands of years ago, could have in the modern era. What do and should they mean to the contemporary world? What hope do fallible humans beings have after violating these holy requirements? Pastors, Bible study leaders, groups and individuals alike are invited to drink from the well of this Bible-based compilation of sermons preached by theologian J. Rodman Williams. Through this series of biblical teachings, Williams explores the depths of these ten life-affirming Laws and the impact of God's Truth and Grace for all who would dare to believe.AWARDS & 2013 Reader's Favorite Book Awards Finalist for Christian - Biblical Counseling 2013 Reader's Favorite Book Awards Honorable Mention for Christian - Non-FictionClick above to get your copy of THE TEN COMMANDMENTS today!

The author was adamant and obsessive about the all the commandments and how to keep them it seemed legalistic and a burden to be able to keep them as he wrote them. . . EXCEPT the fourth commandment. "Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy." The Sabbath was the seventh day at that time. He quoted Exodus 31:12 regarding the offense of not keeping the Sabbath. God made this law. He quoted Matt 5:17, "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them" and MATT 5:18, "not even one smallest letter or one tiny pen stroke shall in any way pass away from the law." He then goes on to state that The Westminster Confession of Faith (Article XXI, 7-8) changed the Sabbath from the seventh day to the first day! MAN changed the Sabbath! God did NOT. The author then dismissed further discussion by "moving on from the particular day."
If he could dismiss this discussion so resolutely, I have to question his take on the other nine commandments!
