Today's Reading: Exodus 24:1-18
Moses reads the laws that God has given to him to all the people. And the people all agree that they will obey those commandments. But as we're going to see, it won't take long until they violate the first two commandments while Moses is still up on the mountain.
It is easy for us to criticize the Israelites for their disobedience, but because of our sin nature we're not capable of keeping the Law on our own either. As we'll see in our reading in the coming days, one of the purposes of the Law is to show us our need for a Savior. But that doesn't mean that the law isn't still applicable to us. With the exception of the law regarding the Sabbath, every one of the Ten Commandments is reaffirmed in the New Testament.
