Finding Relationship Through God’s Top Ten: Purity
Most people think The Ten Commandments are a list of rules / Do’s & Don’ts. But actually, the Ten Commandments are principles for living. Those principles enhance our relationships with God and other people.

Deuteronomy 18:9-11
“When you come into the land which the LORD your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominations of those nations. There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, or one who practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead.
Exodus 20:4-6
“You shall not make for yourself a carved image—any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
Colossians 1:15
He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
Genesis 1:16
Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also.
Acts 3:22
For Moses truly said to the fathers, ‘The LORD your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your brethren. Him you shall hear in all things, whatever He says to you.

Most people think The Ten Commandments are a list of rules / Do’s & Don’ts. But actually, the Ten Commandments are principles for living. Those principles enhance our relationships with God and other people.
1.THE DANGER OF IMPURITY
The culture we live in can easily deceive the believer into thinking we need their gods.
2.THE CONSEQUENCES OF IMPURITY
God allows iniquities to visit generations of people who hate Him so that they will consider the consequences of the sin, seek God, and break the curse.
3.THE BLESSINGS OF PURITY
God shows mercy to generations who love Him and keep His commandments. All of God’s laws are for us to have a pure relationship with Him as He blesses
us.
