Listen "Exodus 20: ☧ Mediates 10 Words on Heaven's Mount"
Episode Synopsis
Rev. Curtis Deterding, pastor of Zion Lutheran Church in Fort Myers, Florida, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Exodus 20.
“I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.” Exodus 20 shows that the “Ten Commandments” are all about relationship and God’s grace. They are not simply law, but also gospel, as this very first of the “Ten Words” shows. There is certainly fear, but it’s a healthy fear that includes reverence, trust, and obedience. Without faith and without faithful teachers, we always go astray with God’s commandments, but with them, we experience the universal mediation of the greater Moses, the Lord Jesus who intercedes for all mankind on the heavenly Mount Zion.
