JESUS
CHRIST our high Priest in the heavenly Sanctuary
Temple ministers in GOD’S presence, the holy of
holiest where the 10 Commandment law is seen in the
ark of the testament [Revelation 11:18,19; 1.King
8:9].
Christians [followers of Jesus]
are to worship there by faith: “And He raised us
up together, and made us sit together in heavenly
places in CHRIST JESUS.” [Eph.2:6]
Those heavenly places where GOD
and CHRIST dwells are the holy and the most holy
places.
Judgment will also take place
there: “And there was given me a reed like unto a
rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure
the temple of GOD, and the altar, and them that
worship therein.” [Revelation 11:1].
“Having therefore Brethren,
boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of
JESUS. By a new and living way, which He has
consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to
say, His flesh. And having an high Priest over the
house of GOD.” [Hebrews 10:19-21].
Every item of the Sanctuary
represents CHRIST and His salvation. The earthly
Sanctuary Temple or Tabernacle was a copy of the
heavenly original. GOD was particular and told Moses
to make it exactly after the pattern:
“Who serve unto the example and shadow of
heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of GOD when
he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See saith
He, that thou make all things according to the
pattern shown to thee in the mount.” [Hebrews
8:5]. [Acts 7:44].
Note: That which was
given to Moses was the shadowy system with all the
laws and regulations that were against us and done
away with at the cross of CHRIST. As soon as JESUS
rose and became our great high Priest in the real
and original above, the old ceased and became
obsolete. We no longer need the shadowy temporal
Sanctuary when we now have the original one in
heaven to worship in. [Heb 9:8]
The most single evidence of the
claims of the 10 Commandments binding on Christians
not as a means to salvation, but as a code of
conduct and measuring rod and mirror in the new
testament or new covenant, is that they are in
heaven under the throne of our GOD.
I have been in Christian
assemblies where they reasoned that since we are all
sinners by nature, one more or less sin doesn’t
really matter. Is that what the Bible teaches?
Listen:
“What shall we say then?
Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
GOD forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live
any longer therein? Know ye not, that so many of us
as were baptized into JESUS CHRIST were baptized
into His death?.....For he that is dead is freed
from sin.” [Romans 6:1-3,7].
“Do we then make void the
law through faith? GOD forbid: yeah we establish the
law.” This law that we establish is GOD’S holy
moral law in the heavenly Temple, in the holy of
holiest and not the ceremonial law of Moses with all
its Jewish ordinances and regulations.
The apostle Paul wrote that he
did not know what sin was, until the law said that
you must not covet [Romans 7:7] and again he wrote:
“What then? Shall we sin, because we are not
under the law, but under grace? GOD forbid.”
[Romans 6:15].
So the New Testament or
Covenant clearly teaches that we are to repent and
stop sinning pointed out to us by the law of the 10
Commandments.
The Greek word for sin is
lawlessness. Christians that want to do away with
CHRIST’S seventh day Sabbath usually attack the law
of GOD in the heavenly Sanctuary.
Salvation is not about the law
but a person, JESUS CHRIST, but it is not a lawless
person! JESUS upheld the 10 Commandments by quoting
two of them and showed us the deep spirituality of
that holy moral law [Matthew 5:17-19] and told us
not the slightest comma or point to neglect. He set
us the example and resisted sin unto death.
The law is written in our
hearts and mind [Hebrews 8+10] and it does not save,
it is a code of conduct only, but JESUS is our
Saviour who does not save us “IN” but “FROM” sin
[Mathew 1:21] And He only saves His people who
belong to Him. He cannot save those who do not want
to belong. Because it is a spiritual law
[Rom.7:7,12,14] it can only be kept by a born again
Believer [see Romans 8:7].
Not all want the righteousness
of CHRIST expressed in that law to be fulfilled
inside us. For this reason He came to earth. He died
to pay the price for our sins which nailed Him to
the cruel cross: “For what the law could not do,
in that it was weak [or weakened]through the flesh,
GOD sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful
flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
That the righteousness of the law
might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the
flesh, but after the Spirit.” [Romans 8:3+4].
Note: no immaculate Mary
here! JESUS took on Himself fallen human nature in
the likeness of sinful flesh to overcome sin. The
R.C.C. has removed the second of the 10 Commandments
in order to bring in images and idolatry forbidden
by GOD. This would leave us with only 9 commandments
as Protestants would like to have it today. But they
split the last into two to make up the numbers again
and that altered all of them. They also took away
CHRIST’S seventh day Sabbath which JESUS is Lord of
and gave Him the roman day of the sun from the
popular pagan festival of Rome.
Protestant Reformers unitedly
identified the man of lawlessness or sin in
2.Thess.2 and the little horn that grew exceedingly
great in Daniel 7 as the papacy. But as of late,
they have changed to the Roman Catholic view that
the little horn is supposed to be Antiochus
Epiphanes II. But the description does not fit at
all. This ancient Persian ruler lived before CHRIST
and therefore cannot be this anti-christ. Epiphanes
also never changed the times and laws of GOD whereas
the papacy did. The Persian King did not go the full
distance of time. He only lasted 3 years and not 3 ½
as stipulated by the prophecy of Daniel 7:25
Every doctrine held by the
Seventh day Adventist Church points to JESUS CHRIST.
1] It is His seventh day, the true Lord’s day
[Rev1:10; Matthew 12:8] given to all man and not
Jews [Mark 2;28]. 2.] CHRIST’S work as Priest above
in the pre-Advent judgment as taught by the
sanctuary service..
THE SANCTUARY
God said build Me a sanctuary
that I may dwell among you. The Sanctuary is the
dwelling place of GOD. All items signify CHRIST and
salvation. The outer curtains represent CHRIST’S
robe of spotless righteousness.
JESUS is both the sacrificial
lamb and the high Priest of it. This is the
centrality of the Gospel at the door of the
tabernacle . Only once in the Bible is the floor
mentioned [Numbers 5:17], and then it is connected
with a curse. It was built in the desert on sand.
Man made and man made of dust, has, because of sin,
come under the curse but JESUS paid the full price
and therefore we are no longer under the law and its
condemnation.
The 4 pillars represent the
four Gospels. The fine white linen is the
righteousness of JESUS and His saints [[Rev19:8].
The blue thread. Blue is the color of heaven and
this runs all through the sanctuary.
The scarlet thread. This speaks
of sin that caused the death of the Son of GOD. The
purple thread. Purple is a mixture made up of blue
and scarlet. We must look to heaven and GOD for the
forgiveness of sin and not an earthly priest.
The first piece of furniture
was the altar of sacrifice where not only did CHRIST
die but we must put all our self-interest and idols.
The horns. These speak of the power of salvation
which is in CHRIST. All the furniture was arranged
in the shape of a cross.
"The Holy Ghost this
signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was
not yet made manifest, while the first Tabernacle
[sanctuary temple] was yet standing." [Heb
9:8]
What does this mean? It does not mean its physical
destruction in 70 A.D. but the right standing with
our GOD: "JESUS, when He cried again with a
loud voice, yielded up the ghost, and, behold, the
veil of the temple was rent in twain from top to
bottom." [Matthew 27:50,51] This
signified the end of the earthly temple services.
The real sacrifice to which the first tabernacle had
pointed had now come. The heavy veil split in two at
the sixth hour [Luke 23:44] the time of the evening
sacrifice.
The Roman General had instructed his soldiers to
preserve the temple, but someone threw a pitch torch
into it. When the soldiers saw all the gold had
melted from the heat and had run into the foundation
stones, they dug it up and so the words of JESUS:
"And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these
things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be
left here one stone upon another, that shall not be
thrown down." [Matthew 24:2] were fulfilled.
The Galatians heresy
Desiring to be under the law
4:21 the difference here is born after the flesh
v.23 versus those who are born by the Holy Spirit
v.29 “But Jerusalem which is above is free,
which is the mother of us all.” V.26 and
compare this to the persecuting earthly mother of
Christendom in Revelation 17 which is the great
adulterating Whore that has the full support of
politics to kill those who cling to the heavenly
citizenship by faith in CHRIST.
To be under the law then means
not being led by the Holy Spirit and vice versa: If
we then are led by the Holy Spirit, we are not under
the law 5:18 which means under the condemnation of
GOD’S holy law. Cf. Romans 6;14
There is also a second meaning
of being under the law. See Gal. 23-29. Before faith
came, we were kept under the law. The law was our
schoolmaster or Pedagogue to bring us to CHRIST. He
was employed by his master to make sure that the
children did not play truant. But once we are
qualified in the school of JESUS, we are no longer
under its condemnation. FAITH does establish the law
Romans 3:31 not as a means to salvation, but a code
of conduct for the followers of JESUS CHRIST who are
to walk even as He walked. New Testament Christians
are under the law of liberty by which we will be
judged according to James 2:8-12 . It includes
everyone of the 10 Commandments in love for GOD and
our fellow men.
Salvation and the Gospel
is all about a person and not the law! So true, but,
it is not about a lawless PERSON. This argument is
often used to minimize the binding claims of the 10
Commandments and the Sabbath of CHRIST and the
fourth in particular. We are not under the law but
under grace is another popular one.
Isaiah is often called the
Gospel prophet. In chapter 42 he prophesied about
JESUS CHRIST and how gentle he would be. He would be
a covenant of the people and a light to us Gentiles
[v.6] but He would also come to magnify the law and
make it honorable [v.21]
This agrees with the apostle
Paul who wrote that JESUS came because the flesh is
weak but that the righteousness of the law might be
fulfilled inside us [Romans 8:3+4]. This is not only
the Christians code of conduct, but part of the new
Covenant with us spiritual Israelites written no
longer on stone but into our new fleshly hearts and
minds [Hebrews chapters 8+10]. Paul says that he had
not known sin and lust except that the law said you
must not covet. Which law is that? He also said that
this particular moral law is holy and good and “SPIRITUAL”
[Romans 7:7-14]. If it is intrinsically spiritual,
which it is, how could it possibly done away with?
Did JESUS come to magnify that
particular law? Yes, He did. He was the only one who
perfectly lived it and on His first sermon explained
its spirituality by saying that we heard it said of
old [O.T.] that you must not commit adultery. But I
say, that whosoever looks with lust on a woman has
already committed adultery in the heart [mind] and
the same about do not murder. He that hates a person
is already a murderer. [Matthew 5:17-19].
Many say to us that the words of our Lord in Matthew
5 “FULFILLED” means to do away with. JESUS said to
John the Baptist: suffer it to be so now, for thus
it becometh to fulfill all righteousness. If this
word “fulfill” means to do away with, then all
righteousness or right doing would be abolished.
Paul cites the last table of
stone and declares that loving our Neighbours is
fulfilling that part of the spiritual law [Romans
13:8-10]
To conclude with, I’d like to
point out again, that the most single factor of
believing in the binding claims of the holy
spiritual moral law of GOD, the 10 Commandments and
CHRIST’S Sabbath, is that they are in heaven under
the throne of GOD called the mercy seat as our code
of conduct written not on stone but in our new
fleshly hearts [2.Cor.3] by the spirit of GOD [Heb
8] with love.
To make sure, it is the
unrenewed heart that cannot be in harmony with that
holy moral and spiritual law of GOD [Romans 8:7]
that JESUS fulfills inside us . It is the very
object of Satan’s hatred and warfare [Revelation
12:17] and GOD says that He will have such a
commandment keeping people on earth in these last
days that: “Keep the commandments of GOD and have
the faith of JESUS.” [ Revelation 14:12].
Christianity has followed
papal Rome in the heresy of sprinkling and
falsely calling it baptism. Catholics and Lutherans
have murdered the Baptists under state laws.
Satan’s first lie, thou shalt not surely die, is the
foundation of all spiritualism yet accepted by all
major denominations. Sunday sacredness also
originated with Rome and still bears the title of
sun worship today, the day of the sun or Sunday.
JESUS proclaimed Himself the
Lord of the Sabbath [Matthew 12:8] and not Sunday in
the New Testament and sowith constitutes the only
biblical “LORD’S DAY [Revelation 1:10]..JESUS never
went to Church on Sundays, so I cannot follow Him
there.
While GOD on one hand says that
He has His commandment keeping people, He also says
that those who have the truth but not the love of it
and turn the truth into a lie, will receive a
powerful delusion [2.Thessalonians 2]. That delusion
appears to be speaking or muttering in tongues from
spiritualism. Neo Pentecostals falsely so called,
fit the picture of 2.Thess.2 and lawlessness
because this is what they are publicly promoting.
They say that the 10 Commandments are a law of
bondage contradicting the Bible in James 2:10-12
which calls it the law of freedom/liberty.
P.S.
Lawlessness [sin] is not
necessarily against law, but less law. i.e.
minimizing the law! GOD could have easily pardoned
everyone without paying so dearly the penalty for
sin on the cruel cross of Calvary.
The Queen once a year pardon’s
a prisoner by her grace. Does this mean that this
forgiven Criminal [sinner] is now free to offend
again? Does this do away with the law that
proclaimed him guilty?
“Shall we continue to sin,
that grace may abound? GOD forbid! How shall we,
that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?”.---Romans
6:1, 2 . “By the law is the knowledge of sin.”---Romans
3:20
“For if we sin willfully
after that we have received the knowledge of the
truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sin.”---Hebrews
10:26

Salvation is a free gift of GOD
to us. Received into the heart by faith, good works
will follow the Believer [Eph.2:8-10]. Even faith is
called work [ ]. But only love
can respond in the Holy Spirit. Works are the fruit,
not the root of Salvation. We are being saved by
faith and judged by works [Rev.20:12].
GOD says: “And I will
betroth [marry] thee unto Me for ever: yeah, I will
betroth thee unto Me in righteousness, and in
judgment, and in loving kindness, and in mercies.”
[Hosea 2:19,20].
“I have likened the
daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate woman.”
[Jer.6:2].
“For thy Maker is thine
Husband; the Lord of Hosts is His name: and thy
Redeemer the Holy One of Israel;The GOD of the whole
earth shall He be called.” [Isa. 54:5].
Someone wrote to me and
objected that the 10 Commandments law should be in
heaven under the mercy seat of GOD by saying that
there is no sex in heaven. My answer is, we are
married to GOD without sex and JAMES 4:4 calls
CHRISTIANS enemies of GOD and adulterers and
adulteresses who foster friendship with the world.
We and angels in heaven can commit spiritual
adultery.
The 10 Commandments
Right from the start of the
New Testament and the first Sermon on the Mount,
JESUS Himself made it very clear that the 10
Commandments of old are now in the spiritual age
more important than ever. He said that it would be
easier for the whole universe to depart, than the
tiniest dot or comma of any of the Decalogue.
He shows us that the new
spiritual meaning is a lot deeper than in the Old
Testament. He said that we can now sin in thought
and be guilty before the action is carried out
[Mathew 5:17-44].
The tiniest dot and title
certainly includes the Seventh Day Sabbath of which
JESUS Himself is Lord [Matthew 12:8] and therefore
it is the Lord’s day [Revelation 1:10]. It is a
literal day, the seventh day of the week, aka
Saturday.
JESUS also teaches us not to
transgress the Sabbath day even under trying
circumstance such as fleeing from persecution
[Matthew 24:20,21]. All the New Testament people
including the new gentiles kept the Sabbath day holy
as seen in ACTS of the Apostles [Acts 13;42-44;
16:13]. The continuity of the Seventh Day Sabbath
can be seen by GOD Himself saying that in the new
earth and the new heaven that He will make, all
flesh will come before Him to worship from one
Sabbath to another [Isa.66:22,23].
When the rich young ruler
came asking what He must do to have eternal life,
JESUS answered him that he must keep all the 10
Commandments in order to have eternal life. But
then He did not stop there, he was also asked to
sell out and to take up the cross and follow JESUS
all the way [Mark 10:17-21].
Note: people that claim that
they can sin a 1000 times a day and not loose their
salvation, are sincerely mistaken. If the cross
could be so easily bypassed, GOD could have saved
the pain and just forgive everybody. The cross of
Calvary shows us the sinfulness of sin. The apostle
Paul as a Jew and Pharisee, especially chosen to
evangelize us gentiles, had not known sin except by
the law that said “Thou shalt not covet.” Of this
same law he said that it was good, holy and
spiritual [Romans 7:7-14]. And as it is
intrinsically spiritual, it can never be done away
with. Christians who do, show that they are not
properly converted.
Dwight Moody said on
the 10 Commandments that he never met an honest man
that had a quarrel with this law. He himself kept
the Seventh Day Sabbath and termed others who did
not, Judases, who come up to JESUS with a kiss while
trampling on His holy day.
GOD Himself runs the
universe by the 10 Commandments because he says that
He keeps them under His throne which He calls the
mercy seat [Heb 8:1-5; 9:3-10]. Here under the mercy
seat is where we find forgiveness.
James confirms that the 10
Commandment law is the royal law and every one of
them will judge us. [James 2:10-12]. This is also
confirmed by the Old Testament because God does not
change nor has he a different measure for O.T.
people. According to [Eccl.12:13,14] we all have the
same duty and judgments. Again, John sees exactly
the same in heaven. He saw on judgment day the very
same thing SDA’S saw after the bitter
disappointment, namely, heaven’s temple opened on
judgment day, the ark of the testament/covenant
containing the two stone tablets, the 10
Commandments. [Revelation 11:18,19]. Obedience is
what every parent is after. To make it possible, GOD
Himself puts love for his holy law inside us under
the New Covenant/Testament [Heb 8].
Lawlessness, or less law, is
seen in 2. Thess 2 in these last days by the man of
sin seated in GOD’S temple claiming to be god. Only
by claiming to change the day of worship can man put
himself in the place of GOD. It is said of them
that they have the truth, but sadly, they do not
love it, but also turn it into a lie. The time has
now come that Christianity no longer endures sound
doctrines and turned to fables [or fiction] because
in order to unite, they have to compromise or lie
aside biblical teachings [2. Tim. 3:16; 4:3,4].
Also the carnal or
unconverted mind and heart is incapable to keep
GOD’S holy law [Romans 8:7] until he becomes
partaker of the divine nature [1.Peter 1:23;
2.Pet.1:4] to escape the corruption that is in this
world through the lust of the flesh.
In
http://www.come2jesus.com.au/sabbath.htm
, I
show the history of the Sabbath. Sunday was kept
only in Rome and Alexandria. The latter was an
extension of Rome. Emperor Constantine had moved to
the east and vacated his seat to the papacy [see
also Rev.13:2]. The Bishop of Florence [Italy] kept
the Sabbath but when he had to visit Rome, he was
harassed by the bishop there and kept both days.
Here the popular sayings, when in Rome, do as the
Romans do, originated. Rome claims responsibility
for the change of the Sabbath which corresponds with
Daniel 7:25 where it says that he spoke great words
against GOD [such as the Priests during Mass claim
to become the creator of their Creator ect.] and
wore out the saints during their long reign of 1260
years on the thrones of the Caesars to burn
Christians at the stake and torn them on the rack.
And thought to change GOD’S times and laws by
removing the second of the 10 Commandments,
splitting the last into two and moving up all the
numbers.
Then the 4th
became the third etc.. God’s time from sundown was
changed to the darkest hour of midnight by pope
Gregory and of course the Sabbath from Saturday to
Sunday in the council of Laodicea.
Power given into the hands
of the little horn in Daniel 7:25 was to be for 3 ½
times or years which is 1260 day of years just as
in the 2300 of Daniel 8:14 and the 70 weeks of years
in Daniel 9:24. Antiochus Epiphanes II comes short
by 6 month with his 3 literal years. He also never
grew exceedingly great like the papacy on the throne
of Rome. The little horn also is said to continue
until the judgment [Daniel 7:8,9]. Which commenced
at the end of the 2300 years in 1844 A.D. with the
cleansing of the heavenly Sanctuary. Here the
second coming of JESUS is seen in verse 13. Papal
Rome reigned from 538 to 1798 A.D. and is now
getting popular again with Protestantism, so much so
that each country is willing to pay Millions of
dollars for a papal visit with taxpayers money.
JESUS did not invent two new
commandments, He just summarized the two tables of
stone. The first table shows us how to love GOD and
the second is like unto it, how to love our fellow
man. I f anything, JESUS said, love as I have loved
you, or, keep my commandments as I have kept my
Father’s commandments.
BREAKING ONE means Breaking TEN
"Whosoever shall keep
the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is
guilty of all."-James 2:10; Matth.5:19
The Ten Commandments are interlocked each one with
every other one. For example, if a person works on
the seventh day of the week [Saturday], he/she has
broken the fourth commandment outright. But the
commandment says, "The Seventh
day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy GOD."
[Exodus 20:8-12; Matthew 12:8].
Now when a person takes what belongs to another for
him/herself, we call this stealing. So when we break
the fourth, the eights is also broken.
But before stealing, there is an intense and
illegitimate desire for the thing he/she steals, an
in such desire the tenth commandment is broken, that
of coveting.
When man puts himself so entirely first, so fully
before GOD as to covet and steal from Him, what
other command does he/she break?
"Thou shalt have no other
god's before Me."
When man puts own interests more to him than
his relationship to his Maker GOD, he becomes a god
himself for we read in the new testament that
"whose god is their belly"
[Phil.3:19] just as we say that their god is the
mighty dollar.
Making an Idol of himself!
There is another commandment so closely related,
it is the second. It is true that he/she has not
made a literal and tangible image, but what is the
difference of worshipping one's self in a stone
image or in one's own person and self opinion? Five
already broken!
GOD'S name in the fourth of the Ten Commandments
tells us that He is Maker/Creator of heaven and
earth. This alone distinguishes Him from all other
gods. It is the only place in the Decalogue where He
affixed His holy name. It tells us of our obligation
to Him. Now when we disobey in such a reckless way,
we are using His name in vain and have no reverence
for Him as we ought to have.
And that is not all. Many person's say, "It
makes no difference which day you keep holy, just as
long as you will keep one out of seven. But GOD says
where His name is signed, that the seventh day is
His Sabbath, in it we are not to work. If we do, we
are breaking also the fifth commandment which says
to honor your parents and GOD is our heavenly
Father. "Wherefore come out
from among them, and be you separate, saith the
Lord, and touch not the unclean thing, and I will
receive you. And I will be a Father to you."---2.Corinthians
6:17,18. This makes eight commandments broken in
transgressing only one.
We have not finished. Committing Suicide.
"The wages of sin is death."---Romans 6:23
"The soul that sinneth, it shall die."---Ezekiel
18:4 "Sin is the
transgression of the law."---1 John 3:4
without it we could not tell what sin is [see also
Romans 7:7]. In this wholesale transgression of
GOD'S law, what is the sinner bringing upon himself?
What is he/she doing to self? Taking your own life.
And the last to complete the ten?
"Thy Maker is thine
Husband: the Lord of hosts is His name; and thine
Redeemer the holy One of Israel; the GOD of the
whole earth shall He be called." Isaiah 54:5
Commandment breaking is not only disobedience,
backsliding and worldliness, but also spiritual
adultery: "You adulterers and
adulteresses, know you not that the friendship with
the world is enmity with GOD?" James 4:4
This spiritual adultery is forbidden by the seventh
commandment. It was spiritual apostasy that led the
doctors of the church in Rome to conform to the
worldly practice of Sunday keeping in honor of the
sun which bears its title. While they deceived
people by saying it is in honor of Christ's
resurrection it was from the rising sun and the
edict of Rome's Emperor Constantine the Great never
mentioned Christ at all in his Sunday law.
Summery:
Only the born again
Christian who has become partaker of the divine
nature is able to keep the spirituality of that holy
moral spiritual law of the 10 Commandments or any
other godly ordinance in love instead of coercion or
legalism. This kind of person has no fear of the
judgment but has become GOD-fearing. The heavenly
Advocate has no trouble representing him in court.
JESUS Himself makes up for any of his shortcomings
or deficiency. Only to such person can it be said
that there is now no condemnation [Romans 8:1] who
are truly in CHRIST JESUS.
Therefore CHRIST died and
rose for him who allows CHRIST’S righteousness of
His holy spiritual law inside him [Romans 8:3+4;
7:7-14]. Such person dies to self and sin daily
[Gal.2:20] and doesn’t remain dead, but rises in
newness of life by the resurrection power of GOD.
This is not like the person
who said he was saved once at such and such a date.
We must be born again every day for the rest of our
lives.

have made May the 7th 2006 the first Ten
Commandments “remembrance day”. Ironically, the
only one of the 10 Commandments that asks us to
remember it is the very one they like to forget!

May 6th, 2006, Designated as "Written In the
Heart" Day! Churches and Schools Urged to Make
Special Plans to Honor God’s Law!
