The Ten Commandments

The Bulletin Board is for gratitude for Christian Science and the Church, as well as timely excerpts from the Bible, the works of Mrs. Eddy, and the early workers that help and encourage. We are very grateful for all posts that conform to these guidelines, but will edit or remove anything that the Practitioners feel is not in complete accord with pure Christian Science or in any way disrespectful of it.

We also ask that you keep your postings as concise as possible. If you quote the Bible, please use The King James Version, as this is what Mrs. Eddy used. Thank you!

    The Ten Commandments was the title of our Bible Study this week. The readings were from Deuteronomy 11 which is in this weeks lesson (Bible, cit. 2). The first question read: “ What are the Ten Commandments and where do they come from?” Of course, they came from God as stated in Exodus 20. But “what are they” is more profound than a list of “Thou shalt not’s” . While looking at some things on the internet on this subject, the thought came to look up Charles Spurgeon, an old time preacher, and see what he had to say on the Ten Commandments. And the following stood out:

    “It is a perfect law, in which the interests of God and man are both studied; it is not a partial law, but impartial, complete, and covering all the circumstances of life. You could not take away one command out of the ten without spoiling both tables of the law, and you could not add another command without being guilty of making a superfluity. The law is holy, and just, and good; it is like the God who made it, it is a perfect law.”

    Thank you for this Lesson and for this Bible Study on the Ten Commandments. It was very comforting and reassuring to discuss them this morning and an answer to a prayer.
