God is limitless in His love, and asks that we at least make the effort to be limitless in ours.

We are punished by our sins, not for them.

If God would have wanted us to live in a permissive society He would have given us Ten Suggestions and not Ten Commandments.

As somebody once said, we're not punished for our sins, we're punished by them.

We may not all break the Ten Commandments, but we are certainly all capable of it. Within us lurks the breaker of all laws, ready to spring out at the first real opportunity.

But men never violate the laws of God without suffering the consequences, sooner or later.

People tend to say Christians are always judging, but the word of God convicts Christians and urges them to obey God's commands.

Christ managed to boil down an awful lot of commandments to a few very simple rules for living. It's when you go backwards through the 'begats' and the Garden of Eden, and you start thinking, 'Hang on, that's a big punishment for eating one lousy apple... There's a human-rights issue.'

We need to accept that the commandments of God aren't just a long list of good ideas. They aren't 'life hacks' from an Internet blog or motivational quotes from a Pinterest board.

We are commanded to love God with all our minds, as well as with all our hearts, and we commit a great sin if we forbid or prevent that cultivation of the mind in others which would enable them to perform this duty.
