The Positive Side Of The Ten Commandments: The Third Commandment Series

Contributed by Michael Luke on Dec 3, 2015

Satan's key tactic is divide and conquer. The church should remain united – focused on the task ahead instead of the trivialities of disagreement.

Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 22, 2022

This Plague came from the land, as the two former came from the river. Aaron "smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice (“Kinnim”) in man, and in beast"(ver. 17). This was a new blow at Egyptian idolatry because the earth was worshipped as well as the river.
