Meet The Truth

7th Law and Prophecy

Exodus 20:14 (14) VII. “You shall not commit adultery.”

Jesus speaking about the Seventh Commandment:

Matthew 5:24-29

“You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.”

Love In Your Heart Will Satisfy

Jesus is judging you on the thoughts and condition of your heart. Have you sinned by lusting? Jesus had more to say about the Seventh Commandment:

Matthew 5:31-32

“Furthermore it has been said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ But I say to you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery.”

Holy And Natural Human Sexually!

The Bible consistently presents human sexuality as holy and natural within the context of the marital vows and just as consistently identifies all other sexual activities as condemned and sinful. The Bible expressly forbids adultery, fornication, homosexuality, bestiality, incest, prostitution, rape, sodomy and all other forms of sexual activity.

Quote of Albert Mohler, Jr.

I feel compelled to add a portion of an article written by R. Albert Mohler, Jr. for “Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary” copyright 2003: “Sexuality is one of God’s good gifts, and the source of much human happiness. At the same time, once expressed outside its intended context of marital fidelity, it can become one of the most destructive forces in human existence.”

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

“Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.”

Prophecy:

Isaiah (700 Years B.C.) – Malachi (450 Years B.C.)

    Isaiah 40:3 and Malachi 3:1 – The ‘voice of one crying in the wilderness,’ a messenger, will prepare the way for the Messiah.

Isaiah 40:3

Isaiah 40:3 “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord; Make straight in the desert a highway for our God.”

Malachi 3:1

Malachi 3:1 “Behold, I send My messenger, and he will prepare the way before Me…”

Matthew 3:1-4

a. Matthew 3:1-4 – “In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, and saying ‘Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!’ For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying: ‘The voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord; Make His paths straight.’ Now John himself was clothed in camel’s hair with a leather belt around his waist; and his food was locusts and wild honey.”

b. Approximate date of Prophecy: (Isaiah) “750-722 years B. C.” and (Malachi) “420-415 years B. C.”

John The Baptist Prophesied

700 years before the birth of John the Baptist, he and his part in the story of our Redemption by Jesus Christ was foretold. Doesn’t that make you want to find the nearest priest or preacher and declare your repentance of sin and acceptance of Jesus as your Lord and Savior?

Would You Warn A Blind Person Of Danger?

I hope you are seeing our journey through The Ten Commandments as a warning; much like if you saw a blind man walking toward a thousand-foot cliff, you would warn him. You would warn him of the danger he is in, wouldn’t you?

If you are not a born-again Christian, you are that blind man!
