This study was taught at our Sunday evening service by Sim Forder, one of our pastors, on the 3rd May 2020. You can listen to the audio on this web page or save it for later listening.

This is the second in a series of studies on the Ten Commandments, following the introduction that you can find here. At the start of the study we reviewed some foundations that are important when trying to understand the purpose of each law:

• The heart of the matter, is the matter of the heart
• The law exposes our sin
• The law leads us to Jesus
• We are saved by grace, not by works
• Having been saved, we should show our faith by our works
• If you love Jesus, keep His commandments
• God has given us His commandments for our benefit

This study focussed on the first commandment that God gave to Moses on Sinai:

And God spoke all these words, saying: “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me.”

Exodus 20:1-3

One of the reasons for this is the only way we can be saved is through through Jesus:

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”

John 14:6

Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”

Acts 4:12
