The Tenth Commandment

View All Lessons

Young Saul of Tarsus was religious. He was zealous for God. He was one of those who thought he kept God’s law perfectly. He claimed to be blameless in obedience. That is, until God enrolled him in the divine law school. Then God made him face the tenth commandment. For the first time, Saul understood that the tenth wasn’t just the tenth. This commandment had a bearing on all other nine. Upon understanding that, Saul admitted that he died. He died to his self-esteem and his false hope. That discovery, however, was the beginning of a new life.
