"The Ten Commandments, Our Need For A Savior"
By Phil Branch 


“Ten Commandments”.  Yes, they were given to the Jews to first, then all after Christ .  However, God knew we would be incapable of such perfection.  Please understand, that is why He sent His One and Only Son to die on the cross for you and me.  Jesus paid the price for sins of the past, present and future. His ascension proved his power over death.  Jesus’s offer to us provides the same power.  Give up the ideologies “man” has created and will create in an attempt to save us.  Repent from worldly ways and follow Him (Jesus Christ). God knew forevermore human kind would be in need of a Savior.  Read below and remind yourself of all the commandments you have broken.  Know that without a Savior there is no way you can live on in eternity.  

 

So this is my prayer: 

 

Gracious Heavenly Father, there are many down here on earth that have yet to accept your gift of eternal life.  As You know there are those that can not see the truth.  There are those that can not hear the truth.  Lord in this petition I beseech You, the Creator and Sustainer of all things send Your Holy Spirit and have this simple note and prayer reach those that do not know, what they do not know.  Lord have Him speak to them in words and thoughts that I can not, so that as you will all can be saved from the evil one.

 

In Your Son’s precious name,

Amen

 

Exodus 20

King James Version (KJV)
20 And God spake all these words, saying,
I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.  Thou shalt have no other gods before me.  Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.  Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;  And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.  Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.  Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.  Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:  10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:  11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.  12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.  13 Thou shalt not kill.  14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.  15 Thou shalt not steal.  16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.  17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
