This Sunday we will begin looking at the Ten Commandments. It may seem simple to some of you. However, most people need teaching on what things are moral and what things are immoral. In our nation today many people have totally lost their moral bearings. I know because I talk to people and counsel them and I see it over and over.

It is amazing what people will suggest as solutions to some of their life problems that are not moral courses of action. They may be common solutions in our culture, but that does not make those solutions morally acceptable in Bible standards. Like your mother used to say, just because everyone else is doing it, does not make it right. In the same way, just because a way of living is socially common or legally acceptable does not make it Biblically moral.

My challenge to the church is this, can you pray for a real attitude of repentance to prepare your heart for what you are about to learn? Can you start now to prepare your heart to be changed by these messages? Will that heart change result in changed actions? Honestly, we can be so proud as church going people that I can imagine that some Sunday messages in this series will be completely rationalized away or ignored in complacency! I have no intention of preaching this series for nothing!

I also believe that this series will be invaluable for visitors and those new to our church or to a relationship with Christ. We need forgiveness of our past sins, but we need moral teaching to not repeat them again. We need moral teaching to realize that God forgave our past and in much of our past we did not even realize that we were sinning.

Don't miss these messages. We are going to work very hard to make sure that each one is posted on the web page audio player. If you are out for vacation or a family event, catch up by listening to or downloading the podcast.
