FIFTH COMMANDMENT: FIRST COMMANDMENT WITH A PROMISE.

“Honor thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.” Exp.20: 12, KJV.

“Parents are entailed to a degree of love and respect which is due to no other person. God Himself, who has placed upon them [parents] for the souls [their children] committed to their charge, has ordained that during the EARLIER years of life, parents should STAND IN THE PLACE OF GOD to their children.

HOW THE SABBATH DAY IS HALLOWED

“IF you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on My holy day [not holiday], and call the Sabbath a delight, the HOLY DAY of the Lord honorable, and shall honor Him, NOT DOING YOUR OWN WAYS, nor FINDING YOUR OWN PLEASURE, nor SPEAKING YOUR OWN WORDS, then you shall delight yourself in the Lord; and I will cause you to rise the high hills [places, KJV] of the earth, and FEED you wither the heritage of Jacob your father. The mouth of the Lord [of the Sabbath day] has spoken.” Isa. 58: 13,14, NKJV.

“God has given 6 days wherein to labor, and He REQUIRES that their own work be done in 6 working days. ACTS of necessity and mercy are permitted in the Sabbath, the sick and the suffering are at ALL TIMES to be cared for; but UNNECESSARY labor is to be strictly avoided. [Isa. 58:13 quoted].

REMEMBER WEEKLY THE CREATOR’S MEMORIAL DAY

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

REMEMBER WEEKLY THE CREATOR’S MEMORIAL DAY

See Exodus 20 : 8-11. And God said: “Moreover I also gave them My Sabbaths, to be a SIGN between them and Me, that they might know that I SANCTIFY them.” Ezekiel 20 : 12 (See verse 20).

To the remnant who are faithfully keeping the commandments of God and overcoming their transgressions of God’s Law by grace, the “sign,” which also means “mark,” or “seal” has already been “written” in their mind, because it has already been committed to memory.

HEART IDOLS OF CARNALLY-MINDED BELIEVERS

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

HEART IDOLS OF CARNALLY-MINDED BELIEVERS.

“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. Who can know it? I, the Lord, search the heart, I test the mind, even to give to every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.” Jer.17:9,10, NKJV.

See Rom. 8:6-8,13. It is from the heart and mind that all forms and manner of idolatry—physical, material, philosophical, religious and spiritual—must be expelled from, not merely from the externals. “The Lord does not see as a man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but God looks upon the heart.” 1 Sam. 16:7.

GOD’S LAW OF LOVE: GUIDE OF LIFE THAT COMES FROM HIM

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

GOD’S LAW OF LOVE: GUIDE OF LIFE THAT COMES FROM HIM

“Love, the basis of creation and redemption, is the basis of true education.”

“This is made plain in the law that God has given as the guide of life. The first and great commandment is: ‘Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength.’ Mark 12:30.”

“To love Him, the Infinite, the Omniscient One, with the whole strength and mind and heart, means the HIGHEST development of every power. It means that in the whole being—the body, the mind, as well as the soul—the image of God is to be restored.”

THE THIRD COMMANDMENT

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

THE THIRD COMMANDMENT

“Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that takes His name in vain.” Exo.20:7.

“This commandment not only prohibits false oaths and common swearing, but it forbids us to use the name of God in a light and careless manner, without regard to its awful significance. By the thoughtless mention of God in common conversation, by appeals to Him in trivial matters, and by the frequent and thoughtless repetition of His name, we dishonor Him. ‘Holy and reverend is His name.’ (Ps.111:9]. All should meditate upon His majesty, His purity and holiness, that the heart may be impressed with a sense of His exalted character; and His holy name should be uttered with reverence and solemnity.” -Patriarchs & Prophets, pp. 306, 307.

THE SECOND COMMANDMENT

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

THE SECOND COMMANDMENT

“Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in the heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them.” Exo. 20: 4-6, KJV.

“The second commandment forbids the worship of the true God by images or similitude (likeness). Many heathen nations claimed that their images were mere figures or symbols by which the Deity was worshiped. But God has declared such worship to be SIN. The attempt to represent the Eternal One by MATERIAL objects would LOWER man’s conception of God. The mind, turned away from the Infinite perfection of Jehovah, would be attracted to the CREATURE rather than to the CREATOR. And as his conceptions of God were LOWERED, so would men become DEGRADED.”
