In a day and age when Christ's Church is grappling with issues of moral relativism and the loss of consensus in defining what freedom in Christ means, the call to seek God's wisdom through His unchanging law is imperative. The Liberating Law challenges the moral bankruptcy of our 'free' society and calls for a reawakening to the timeless absolutes of right and wrong that guard healthy, holy living. It provides both the Old Testament foundation and the New Testament implications of the Ten Commandments to help us understand that they are not words of condemnation nor of penalty, but words of true liberation. In this context, the Ten Commandments can be understood as the 10 ways to sustain a lasting, loving relationship with our Creator.
