The ten commandments tell us something dreadful about our hearts. Human nature needs to be told to respect father and mother. Human nature needs to be told not to commit adultery. Human nature needs to be told not to steal. The ten commandments are a terrible indictment against human nature. The ten commandments reveal our sinful nature. The tragedy is that the law tells us what to do, but does not give us power to do it. I know what is right, and yet I do what is wrong. The law brings a curse, but praise God that Jesus took upon himself the curse of the law and freed us.
