The Fifth And Sixth Commandments
Contributed by Christopher Arch on Apr 13, 2020 (message contributor)
Summary: This is from a series I preached on the 10 Commandments
b. The most basic idea in this Command is that we should do everything possible within our power to live at peace with our neighbor and never seek his or her harm. We should always do what we can do to stop the slaughter of innocent individuals. Do what you can do so as not to dishonor God’s gift of life.
C. Application: The preciousness of human life taught by Jesus has always worked as a leaven in society wherever the Gospel has been preached. The Gospel realistically looks at human nature, frail and flawed as it is, and in need of a Savior. However, it also opposes the devaluing of human life based on arbitrary standards in our society such as age, intelligence, race, or disability, or perceived worth to society.
