When did we last test ourselves by the ten commandments? Have I any gods before the true God, any idols in my life? Do I depend, say, depend upon music to lift my soul rather than prayer to God? Yes, you can listen to good music of course, but not to come dependent upon it. When I worship God, do I think of his immensity, his infinity, or do I worship a graven image of my own making and not consider his attributes? Do we lift up the name of the Lord in vain? Do we come into the house of God, taking the hymnbook and singing the name of God while our mind was on something else? Do we believe in the command of the Sabbath day, the creation ordinance from the very beginning that we should worship God one day a week, as far as our circumstances and the law of the land allows. We must worship him and set aside the time, make it a day for him, so that we do all our shopping and work and revision and study on other days. Do we honour not only our physical parents, but our political parents, employer-parents, church-parents and elders? When we are young, we think we can reform everything. We can despise authority and think our ideas are best. In the Old Testament Moses very quickly extends that command not to kill to cover killing of well-being and happiness. So he puts kidnap right in the same category as murder and taking away by various means the happiness of the parental generation. The opposite of adultery is loyalty and love which is unswerving and unfailing. The opposite of stealing is to be a giver and a supporter and a helper and a person of kindness and goodness. We must not bear false witness, or gossip, or lie, or exaggerate, or boast falsely. Do we avoid covetousness and instead live reasonably and modestly and simply, enjoying good things, but not elevating ourselves absurdly and depriving others?
