Exodus: The Ten Commandments (Decalogue)

God's law can teach, it can restrain, and it can disciple. But it cannot save.

That was the problem of the Israelites as they looked at the burning mountain. When they heard the ten commandments, they realized this - as significant as those commandments were, they only condemned, and did not redeem. The fire on the mountain was a reminder that the people still could not approach God, even with the law in hand. So what was their hope? We'll consider that in our continuing study of the Book of Exodus.
