Paul gives a third "trustworthy saying" to Timothy - God is the savior of those who believe, so we are freed to work hard and exert effort in his service. If you are a believer, do you also recognize that you are a servant of Christ, and need to be trained by his Word for service? That's a key reason we preach every weekend and have so many opportunities to volunteer.

Live long and prosper - Star Trek silliness, or a promise from God? Is that what God promises us for obeying the 5th Commandment, to honor our parents? As we continue seeing God reveal himself through the 10 Commandments, Pastor Ben shows us that it isn't about moralism - doing good things to get God's favor - but it's about a God who speaks, who redeems, and who sanctifies. What does the way we honor our parents say about our relationship with God the Father, and others in whom we can invest?

The 4th Commandment is easily forgotten and overlooked: honoring the Sabbath. Why is this one of God's Top 10? Because more than being just about rest, the Sabbath is about trust in God's provision, thankfulness for his deliverance, and being set apart as his people. Those 4 aspects are just as important today as they have ever been, and we will spend eternity enjoying each of them. Are you accepting the gift of work, resting properly, trusting God for sustenance, thanking him for his deliverance, and speaking of him to others when they ask why you Sabbath?

We continue our Ten Commandments series by considering the third Commandment - honoring God's name. Is this just about cussing, or maybe carelessness in our speech, or does it go even further? We "profane" God's name by claiming to be part of his family, but then living a completely different life. Fortunately God has given another name, by which we can be saved - the name of Jesus.

Last week, the 1st Commandment told us that God alone is to be worshipped. This week, we continue with the 2nd Commandment - when we worship God, we are NOT to make any images. Why is this important? Because images and representations always cheapen God, and fail to capture his glory. How might we be tempted to do this? By creating a god of our own imagining, creating him as we wish him to be, instead of how he has revealed himself to us - in his Word, and in his son Jesus, and especially at the cross!
