Keeping the Ten Commandments Quotes

“What we must realize is that God, who is
himself a father-the Father of our Lord
Jesus Christ and of all Christians through
him-cares about families enormously.”
― J.I. Packer, Keeping the Ten Commandments

“For us there are still the great gods Sex, Shekels, and Stomach (an unholy trinity constituting one god, self), and the other enslaving trio, Pleasure, Possessions, and Position, whose worship is described in 1 John 2:16 as “the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in posses-sions.” Football, the Firm, Freemasonry, and the Family are also gods for some, and indeed the list of other gods is endless, for anything that anyone allows to run his life becomes his god, and the claimants for this prerogative are legion. In the matter of life’s basic loyalty, temptation is a many-headed monster.”
