What comes to mind when I say,  "The 10 Commandments"?  A list of rules? Something to put on the wall of a courtroom? How about love? The 10 Commandments were first given in the context of God's love for the Jews as His "treasured possession." They are a guide for loving Him back. As such they tell us what matters to Him and how to be in step with Him. For Christ-followers, they fulfill a similar function. Once we have experienced God's love, acceptance, and forgiveness in Jesus, they show us how to love Him and love with Him.

June 29 - For Who He Really Is, by Andy Schultz, Worship Pastor

Second Commandment: No Idols

Exodus 20:1-2, 4-6; Deuteronomy 5:8-10; Exodus 32; John 14:6-9; Colossians 1:15; Hebrews 1:1-3; Romans 1:21-23 

Who is God, and what is He like? There are lots of opinions on that. We work hard to make Him understandable, relatable, and agreeable to us. But the Second Commandment puts boundaries on that. To walk with God is to accept Him for who He is and how He has revealed Himself. He is pursuing an honest relationship with us. He is jealous that we would love Him for who He really is and not who we want Him to be.
