The Ten Commandments: the ultimate list of "thou shalt nots," or an expression of divine love?

While Jews and Christians alike have revered the Ten Commandments for millennia, secularists and agnostics have tried to remove them from the public square. Some Christians wonder if they are still relevant in this age of grace, while others approach them as a checklist for earning God's favor. But what if these ten "words of endearment" from God actually reveal the loving heart of a Father seeking to guide and guard His cherished children?

Dr. William B. Coker, Sr., has faithfully served in ministry at Asbury Theological Seminary, Asbury College (University), and OMS International, with the Emmaus community, and as senior pastor of World Gospel Church, Terre Haute, Indiana. Bill has emphasized spiritual growth based on a grounded knowledge of biblical truth. As you explore his well-honed insights about each of the Ten Commandments, you will be challenged to:

View the Decalogue as an expression of God's loving care vs. His wrath
Understand the depth and purpose of each commandment
Relate each commandment to all of the others, as part of a unified whole
Apply the spirit of each commandment to transform your relationships with God and others

Each chapter concludes with thought-provoking questions and practical action steps to help you apply the truths you are learning about the Ten Commandments to your daily life.

These ten "words" are far from a historic code or a legal obligation. They give amazing insight into the heart of God for His people and how to build a life based on His values, character, and goodness.
