It's good to know other's write a lot too in here. Smile.I don't feel so bad now.:rolleyes: GOOD FEED BACK!....I have alway's seen the Ten Commandment's like this:


I think of the Ten Commandment's like a tennis game without the rules. I see these people out there having a great time, just hitting the ball off the fence posts into play, letting the ball bounce once before hitting the ball back , then on the next turn, letting it hit two times, followed by three bounces on the next turn before returning the ball. Then after the game is over both parties exchanging handshakes and asking who won? ....We really can't call it a tennis game that way tho can we? I like that both parties are happy at the end but don't we need the rules to determine who won and lost? In the same way I see God sending the rules of life like that of this game of tennis, in my mind. You see How can God have sent Jesus to save us from our sins if we didn't even know what sin was? We thought ....AWESOME!... a rule book that we can simply follow and we get to heaven. But to our disappointment, it was too hard to follow successfully. But God never planned those rules to bring victory over sin. Even tho they were sacred and Holy rules.

Only Thru Jesus' Blood on a cross can we now live up to those rules. And we can live up to those rules! By Christ, and our adoption by Him to his history and purity.
