Thunder from Sinai: An Introduction to the Ten Commandments

Date: September 15, 2024 / Preacher: Rev Joshua Mikelson

This week we start our new sermon series on the Ten Commandments. The sermon is entitled “Smoke from the Mountain: An Intro to the Ten Commandments”, and the text for the sermon is Exodus 19:7-24 and 20:1-3.

One of the best and clearest guides that God has given for us to be in right relationship with Him and with each other is found in the ten words that God spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai, known to us as the Ten Commandments. Throughout this series, we will learn that the Ten Commandments are not a divine finger-wagging from an angry and wrathful God. Instead, the Ten Commandments are a gracious and loving invitation into God’s way of protecting and enhancing true freedom – freedom from those things that keep us from God, so that we are free for right relationship with God and with each other.
