This sermon explores the third commandment, defining it not merely as a prohibition against misuse of God's name but as a call to cultivate a righteous attitude toward Him. The preacher identifies five essential marks of this attitude: faith, fear, love, loyalty, and trust, explaining how each reflects a believer's desire for Christlikeness and reverence. It further examines various times of testing, such as adversity, scarcity, abundance, and social inconvenience, which challenge and refine these spiritual dispositions. By contrasting human failure with the perfect obedience of Jesus Christ, the message encourages believers to rely on His grace for growth in holiness. The ultimate goal is to foster a deep, obsessive love for God that remains steadfast through all life's trials.

This sermon explores the Ninth Commandment against false witness by contrasting human deception with Jesus Christ as the embodiment of divine truth. Through an analysis of Pilate's trial, the preacher illustrates how people often suppress or compromise the truth to avoid personal cost, mirroring Pilate's indecision. The central message emphasizes that believers are called to be valiant for truth not through their own strength, but through union with Christ who took the condemnation for human lies. This union grants a new heart and identity as those 'of the truth,' enabling them to listen to Jesus' voice in all of Scripture. Ultimately, the sermon urges Christians to love and obey the entirety of God's Word rather than selectively adhering to convenient doctrines.

Humans are unable to live in right relationship with one another because they are not in right relationship with God. In this sermon from Exodus 20:1–26 titled "The Message of the Bible Today," Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones shows that at every opportunity throughout Scripture, humanity failed to dwell in obedience to God. Adam, Noah, Abraham—they all failed. Even when God gave the Israelites the Ten Commandments, they were unable to live in obedience. Scripture highlights God's holiness and the depravity of sin in humanity with the sole purpose of turning people's eyes to Jesus Christ. The greatest need is to live in right relationship with God and this is accomplished because sins were punished in Christ. Dr. Lloyd-Jones asks, "has the law of God brought you to Christ?" When one considers the state of humanity and their inability to live in obedience, Dr. Lloyd-Jones encourages turning to the character of God and the gift of His Son.

The ninth commandment, 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor,' calls believers to a radical commitment to truthfulness in all relationships, extending far beyond courtroom perjury to include gossip, slander, rash judgment, and any form of deceit that harms another's reputation. Rooted in the fall of humanity, where lying first entered the world through the serpent's deception, this command reveals the deep-seated sinfulness of the human heart, which seeks approval, power, and control through falsehood. Yet the gospel offers profound hope: through Christ's substitutionary death, where He bore the lies of humanity on the cross, believers are freed from the bondage of deceit and empowered by the Holy Spirit to live in radical honesty. The call is not merely to avoid lying but to actively pursue truth, love, and transparency as a way of life, reflecting the new creation found in Christ, where the heart is cleansed and transformed into a clear, truthful witness to God's grace.
