β¦ Synopsis
The Ten Commandments have never been more controversial. There is much angst about where they can and cannot be displayed. All such quests miss the point. The point is not where we display them publicly, but how our lives publicly display them for all to see. Even our understanding of what God meant by the Ten Commandments often misses the point. Unfortunately, following Jesus has been distilled to a list of what we can do and what we cannot do as Christians have become defined by what they are against rather than what they are for. But that is not what the Christian life is all about. The real measure of following God is unveiled when we discover just what God meant by the Ten Commandments. It is not about what we do not do, but how we apply the deeper meaning of what God intended through these commandments.
