God's Rules for Holiness

Taken at face value the Ten Commandments are binding on all people, and will guard the way to Heaven, so that evil will never spoil its glory and purity. But the Commandments are far greater than their surface meaning, as this book shows.

They challenge us as Christians on a still wider range of sinful deeds and attitudes. They provide positive virtues as goals. And they give immense help for staying close to the Lord in our walk and worship.

The Commandments are vital for godly living and for greater blessing, but we need to enter into the panoramic view they provide of the standards and goals for redeemed people.

Extract from this book

Each sin named in the Ten Commandments represents an entire species of sin. Each sin named is the chief offence of a whole family of wrong deeds. It is well known, for example, that the commandment against adultery also covers lust in the heart, and the commandment against murder includes hatred. There fore when a commandment forbids a major sin, all 'lesser' sins in the same family are to be included in the scope of that commandment.
The Ten Commandments are certainly to be taken at face value, and obeyed at the level of the sin named, but to limit the Commandments to the sin specifically mentioned robs them of all but their surface meaning.
