Conclusion to the Ten Commandments Lesson 15
What Does God’s Will Require? • That we love Him above all else. • That we love our neighbor as ourselves. • That we love in our thoughts, words, and actions.
The Christian’s reaction to the Ten Commandments • We confess our sins, admit we can’t earn heaven by our works, and recognize God’s anger at sin. • We see that only by personal faith in Jesus are we justified (declared not guilty) and acceptable to God. • After being assured of salvation, we will seek to obey God and please Him as He commands.
What to do when we sin: Practice Spiritual Breathing • Exhale • Confess my sins and by faith put them on Jesus my Savior • Turn away from sin as a forgiven child of God. • Inhale • Trust that I am forgiven because of Jesus and I am able to live a new life. • Thankfully begin to serve God and expect His blessings.
