The Ten Commandments bring recognition of our selfish sin against God and our neighbors. They should lead us to the Work of God in Christ reconciling us to himself by death on the cross. That reconciliation to God in Christ should lead us back to knowing the Law of Love and obedience to those Ten Commandments because they reveal his will for us on this side of living.

The Christian life should look like what St. Paul wrote in the Holy Scriptures of Romans Chapters 7 and 8. It is not easy and there is a major struggle. But there is no more condemnation for us who are reconciled to God by the death of Christ. We have Everlasting Life and a new Union with God in Christ by His Spirit and Love.

The message has never changed from the Garden till now and it never will. Revelation of this first came to Adam in the Garden Then it came with more precise revelation to Abraham and his descendants. Then Moses and the Prophets gave us clearer revelation. Then Truth and Grace came into their fulfilment in the Work of God in Christ. When the completion is final all tears shall be wiped away and we will be with Him. Oh What Love the Father has bestowed upon us.
