God’s Physical Family
The ninth commandment of not bearing false witness against one’s neighbor – has a
direct connection with God’s Master Plan for the ultimate salvation of all of mankind in
time to come.
This present life is to teach the hard lessons that should be learned from human
experience in this age; the heartache, suffering and unhappiness that comes from
choosing to live the way of reasoning instead of by the revealed teachings and laws of the
caring and wonderful God in heaven above.
To begin His Master Plan the LORD God chose the nation of Israel to be His wife. She
would act as His center piece for the salvation of mankind by bringing all of mankind
together by using her as priests to teach the Gentile nations the way of love for one
another that would bring about peace among them as brothers and neighbors (Exodus
19:5-6).
To begin implementing His plan the LORD God thundered His Ten Commandments to
His people from the top of Mount Sinai to not only instill the needed reverent fear
within them to make the changes needed in their own lives, but with this knowledge of
God’s laws they would be enabled to teach the Gentile nations.
However Israel rejected her God and His Holy righteous laws! As the result she blinded
herself in moral darkness through selfishness and lust and by following the way of the
Gentiles (
Jeremiah 10:1-2
).
And after almost a full 6,000 years mankind is still looking for solutions to their very
weighty problems, heavier now than ever before in history! However they seek it
through human reasoning rather than seeking it by obedience to God’s laws. As the
result they are wandering around blindly groping along the wall for something solid to
hold them together.
The Supreme Court of the United States
Paradoxically these same laws are yet engraved
on the doorway of the courtroom of the Supreme
Court of the United States. However they are
ignored and meaningless to them and to society.
Yet most of those same people look for salvation
while living with the belief from erroneous false
teaching by religion of their going to heaven and
having eternal life when they die (
Isaiah 59:5;
II
Timothy 3:5
).
