Hate the Sin, Love the Savior
In this message from our series on the Ten Commandments, we examine the seventh commandment—”You shall not commit adultery” (Deut. 5:18)—and discover why sexual sin in all its forms (lust, fornication, adultery, and more) is especially heinous: it deserves death, desecrates covenants, destroys families and nations, debases individuals, damns souls, and disgraces God.

This divinely appointed day calls us to cease from weekly labors, gather for worship, feed our souls through the word,…
