The Sixth Commandment: Statutes and Precepts (17)

Deuteronomy 22.8

“When you build a new house, then you shall make a parapet for your roof, that you may not bring guilt of bloodshed on your household if anyone falls from it.”

Rebellion put Israel under the judgment of God.

Deuteronomy 24.6

“No man shall take the lower or the upper millstone in pledge, for he takes one’s living in pledge.”

Israel exchanged God's glory for shame.

The Sixth Commandment: Statutes and Precepts (15)

Exodus 21.20, 21

²⁰ “And if a man beats his male or female servant with a rod, so that he dies under his hand, he shall surely be punished. ²¹ Notwithstanding, if he remains alive a day or two, he shall not be punished; for he is his property.”

Few things are more important to “get right” in our churches than the worship of God. Worship is the Christian’s highest calling and greatest privilege, as it is also for the local church. God has set forth a pattern of sound worship in His Word, and our duty is to learn and follow that pattern, for the glory of God, the edification of His Body, and the progress of His Kingdom.
