Exodus 20.2-23.0 - How God's People Live


Listen Later

The sermon centers on the divine pattern of worship, justice, and holy living revealed in the Book of the Covenant, following the giving of the Ten Commandments. It emphasizes that true worship begins with God's self-revelation through His Word, not human preference, and demands reverence that excludes human glory, as seen in the command to build an altar of uncut earth. From this foundation, the law unfolds as a reflection of God's heart—protecting life, defending the vulnerable like widows and orphans, and establishing a holy people marked by integrity, justice, and compassion. The laws are not merely rules but a way of life shaped by God's character, calling His people to remember His redemption, trust His provision, and live in joyful obedience. Ultimately, the passage culminates in God's promise of His abiding presence, leading His people into victory and rest, not by their strength but by His power, pointing forward to Christ who fulfilled the law and now leads believers daily in faith, gratitude, and dependence.
