The Ten Commandments
By David Wilkerson0Importance of the Ten CommandmentsMoral LawEXO 20:1David Wilkerson addresses the Supreme Court's ruling against displaying the Ten Commandments in courthouses, emphasizing that these commandments represent God's unchanging moral law, essential for societal stability. He highlights the irony of society's efforts to erase these eternal laws, originally inscribed by God, while many Christians dismiss their importance, claiming they only need to be internalized. Wilkerson argues that God's intention was for these commandments to be visibly acknowledged and integrated into daily life, as outlined in Deuteronomy 6:6-9. He calls for a recognition of the significance of the Ten Commandments in maintaining moral order.
The Moral Nature and Fitness of Things Considered
By John Gill0Divine AuthorityMoral LawGEN 1:3PSA 115:3ISA 45:7DAN 4:35EPH 1:11John Gill addresses the sermon 'The Moral Nature and Fitness of Things Considered' by Samuel Chandler, critiquing the notion that moral good and evil exist independently of God's will. He argues that if moral distinctions arise from the nature of things, it implies a deity superior to God, which contradicts divine revelation. Gill emphasizes that moral obligations stem from God's will and nature, not from an abstract moral order, and warns against the implications of viewing moral fitness as a separate standard. He concludes that such views could lead to polytheism, deism, antinomianism, and libertinism, undermining the authority of God's law.
