10 Commandments & Christian Community

Of all the material in the Old Testament, the Ten Commandments have had the greatest ordering effect on modern Western society. They have influenced our legal systems, business practices, and social mores -- and shaped personal piety.The Decalogue can teach us about commitment. The faith outlined here by Jay W. Marshall begins with the covenant between God and people, based on God's deliverance and grace. This covenant grants privileges to believers along with responsibilities. It also shows that a congregation is more than a collection of people. Believers who worship together are called by God to become a faith community.Marshall, Jay W. is the author of '10 Commandments & Christian Community' with ISBN 9780836190274 and ISBN 0836190270.
