Keep God’s Name Holy

April 30, 2023 • Rusty Coram

Carrying God’s name is a privilege that has great responsibility. Those who know Him need to show God’s nature and character in all we say and do.

Introduction

Galatians 2:20

The Ten Commandments were given to us by God to show what He wants for the lives of those who follow Him. They provide a picture of faithful devotion to Him and others. If we are honest, none of us obey them faithfully, which is why we need a pathway to God. That is what Jesus provides us. Accepting Him as our Savior and Leader creates a new life fueled by gratitude and His Spirit. There’s more to the Ten Commandments than meets the eye. In this series, we’ll dig into them together to gain a better appreciation for God’s design for our lives.
