Use the 10 Commandments to bring conviction to the consciences of the lost and backslidden. THAT’s exactly how New Testament saints are instructed to use the Law.

Do you have the 10 Commandments memorized? Do it now.

GOSPEL/KINGDOM TRUTH:

People must become convicted of their sin before they are broken and shown the need to repent. This truth is essential to successful ministering. Gal 3:24; 1 Tim 1:7-10; Ps 19:7 … You cannot and will never talk anyone into being saved. You don’t have that power. God does. And He instructs us to give them the divine sword which cuts straight into the consciences of men, convicting and drawing them.

“The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.” Psalms 19:7

Notice, not your words or mine but rather “The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul.” Memorize this verse and the 10 Commandments. THAT’s when you will be armed and dangerous!

Today we have many ideas and notions concerning the important calling to evangelize the lost. Much of it is based upon mere human reason as an approach. Remember, we are but dust and that God knows what people, sinners need. And He told us what they need and how to engage them. Giving them the law, perhaps at times incorporating it conversationally, speaking it with care, lovingly, is the stated divine prescription.

The law convicts the sinner that he is just that – a sinner separated from his Maker, “alienated from the life of God.” (Ephesians 4:18) Then comes the Good News, the grace, the cross.

The law of God convicts. The Word of God rejoices the heart and enlightens the eyes.

“The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. 8 The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.” Psalms 19:7-8

The law of God convicts sinners and brings them to Christ.

“Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.” Galatians 3:24

BIBLICAL EVANGELISM: When people realize they are lost through the law, by being convicted of their sin against God, they sense the separation and impending judgment. At this point, by divine design, they will be more readily accepting of being saved. The law clearly conveys, exposes our sin, convicts the conscience of the guilt of sin and opens the door wide for them to be saved. Law must precede grace. Moses (the law) preceded Jesus (grace) (John 1:17). The sinner must be convicted by the law that he’s a sinner before he realizes his need to receive Christ! (Galatians 3:24; 1 Timothy 1:8-11)

The law convicts deeply. Let the law of God do its work. It’s futility (without the law) to attempt to convince a sinner of his sin and therefore his need to be saved, forgiven. God’s law does this!

“And of some have compassion, making a difference: 23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.” Jude 22-23

The ultimate divine goal is to convict and to save the soul. This is why we must obey God by preaching HIS WORDS – law to convict and gospel to save (Romans 1:16; Psalms 19:7, etc.).

“But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; 9 Knowing this, that the law is NOT made for a righteous man, but (it is made) for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; 11 According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.” 1 Timothy 1:8-11

Notice closely…. the law IS made for sinners…. to convict them of their sin so they may come to Christ!

“The law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners…” 1 Timothy 1:9

Presenting the Word: First, employ the law to cut, to convict, and to expose how wicked the sinner is and deserving of nothing but damnation, THEN the Gospel of Jesus’ saving grace to make the sinner whole. Amen!

Let’s look at it again and you may wish to memorize this truth:

“Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.” Galatians 3:24

The sharp edge of the law convicts the sinner unto repentance.

NO one will BE saved before becoming greatly convicted of their sin. give them the Law then they will desire Christ (Galatians 3:24; 1 Timothy 1:9-11). The law convicts and brings them to Christ – it serves God’s purpose. We don’t lead them to Christ so much as God’s law convicts and leaves them feeling the reality of their alienation from God – and then they will be prepared to hear the saving Gospel of Christ. This is the New Testament way of winning souls to Jesus.

Jesus only saves those who truly repent and not those who just say a prayer! In order for one to repent, he must receive the Law, be convicted, repent and believe on the LORD Jesus Christ. Many have said a prayer but didn’t repent. The fact that their life is not completely changed by Christ proves they didn’t repent. The Law of God (the Ten Commandments) when used correctly and verbatim, convicts the sinner and leads him to repentance.

Gary Skinner writes: “God’s 10 Commandments should be memorized by every believer.”

God spoke for Himself when He told us that His law convicts the lost sinner and brings him to Christ (Galatians 3:24). “According to the glorious gospel” the LORD told us that His law is made, not for the saved but rather “for the lawless.” ….

“Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; 11 According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.” 1 Timothy 1:9-11

DO you know and do you access the 10 Commandments in God’s Word – to convict sinners?

What Bible chapter are the 10 Commandments found in? Exodus 20

10 Commandment Evangelism in Action: Derek’s Dilemma and Deliverance!

Today we have several well-known apologists who often appear before secular crowds at universities, king of like the apostle Paul as he spoke with the Athenians and those on Mars’ Hill.

What’s most important and the biblical model for evangelism, is to give the lost the law of God (10 Commandments), to convict them which in turn will bring them to Christ (Romans 7:12; Galatians 3:24; 1 Timothy 1:7-10). Placating lost souls with scientific arguments in defense of the faith seems to seldom if ever result in a lost sinner coming to the Savior in repentance. It is the law of God that pierces directly into the consciences of men and converts sinners to Christ (Psalms 19:7). When Paul spoke with the secularists of his day on Mars’ Hill he spoke to them of their idolatry (a sin violating the first 2 of the 10 Commandments), called them to repentance, and warned them that Judgment Day was coming (Acts 17:22-34).

Social media is full of people telling sinners the benefits of salvation, before they are saved, instead of obeying God and preaching the essentials of the law and call to repentance to convict them of that sin. In order for the sinner to experience the blessings of Christ’s salvation, they must be convicted of their sin, their separation from God. This is done by giving them the law, the 10 Commandments.

Give sinners the LAW to convict them of sin and therefore their separation from God. That is Bible evangelism (Galatians 3:24; 1 Timothy 1:7-11). Then preach the Gospel (Mark 16:15). No one can be talked into being saved. They must be preached into the kingdom, into being saved. It doesn’t matter how badly you want them to be saved, they will not be saved unless someone gives them the law to convict them – to expose their sin to them, bringing conviction and repentance. In being crucified with Christ, your personal sentiments will be mortified out of the way.

God begs no one. We all need Him. He doesn’t need us.

The law convicts the heart of sin and causes people to run to the LORD for the forgiveness He alone can give.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS

Exodus 20

“Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” v3
“Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:” v4
“Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.” v7
“Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.” v8
“Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.” v12
“Thou shalt not kill.” v13
“Thou shalt not commit adultery.” v14
“Thou shalt not steal.” v15
“Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.” v16
“Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s.” v17

After copying and pasting the Ten Commandments above, recently I sent the following to a sinner:

How does what you are saying to deflect and mock Christians and the LORD change your own personal accountability to your Maker who is the Judge of your eternal soul? We have all sinned against Him…. you included …. He sees the lies you’ve told, the people you’ve hated, the lust of the heart, the use of His holy name in vain, having other gods before Him (idolatry)…. why not settle out of court? Why not surrender in an honest heart and admit to Him what He already knows…. all of your sin? (Exodus 20)

Always, always, always use the Law to bring conviction of sin with sinners. That is the Bible, the New Testament way.

“ACCORDING TO THE GLORIOUS GOSPEL” we are to teach New Testament believers to use the law to bring conviction to lost souls (Psalms 19:7; Galatians 3:24; 1 Timothy 1:11). In order to be “meet (fit) for the master’s use,” one should know those 10 commandments in order to use them when evangelizing (2 Timothy 2:21).

Do you have the 10 Commandments memorized in order to help sinners be convicted of their sin and be saved?

Regrettably, the essential doctrine of repentance is a lost doctrine of the modern church and without it, one cannot possibly be born again, regenerated (Luke 13:3; John 3:3, 7; Titus 3:5-7). The sinner must first become convicted by the Law to be moved by the Holy Spirit to repent.

The New Testament way of evangelizing begins with putting the law of God, the 10 Commandments, in the hearts of sinners (1 Timothy 1:8-11).

New Testament believers are to use the law, the 10 commandments…. dropping them in people’s hearts and talking with them about how sinful we all are and in need of the Savior’s forgiveness and quoting the commandment and asking them specifically if they’ve committed that sin…. Watch God convict!

The law of God convicts the sinner that he’s sinned against a Holy God. The believer can assist in this process by asking them the questions of breaking His holy law, using the 10 Commandments. This is specifically according to the Gospel. Read 1 Timothy 1:7-10.

Eunice Tabuzo writes:

“The Gospel is only good news to those who understand the bad news about sin. By comparing the Law (God’s ten commandments), with our lives, we will realize by the power of the Holy Spirit that it is impossible for any of us to perfectly keep the Law. It becomes clear that all people have sinned and therefore, we are all worthy of condemnation; being guilty in the sight of God, and that we are all lawbreakers in need of forgiveness.

The good news is that God has provided forgiveness in the Person and work of Jesus. By His perfect life, death, burial and resurrection, Jesus accomplished all that God’s law requires of us in order to attain righteousness and full payment for our disobedience. Jesus Christ gave Himself to pay for our sins and provide the way of salvation—freedom from the condemnation we deserve.

God requires complete obedience. Jesus provides complete salvation for the disobedient who confess their sin before Him, repent of their transgressions, of their rebellion, and trust in Him as their Savior and Lord. Every repenting sinner who turns away from sin and trusts Jesus will be saved from sin.

What God requires in His Law He provides in His Gospel. That is the message of the Bible and it is what everyone needs to hear and believe to be saved.

So, Christians, when we share the Gospel, we need to declare the Law and the Gospel, and pray for the Spirit to bless the hearer to reveal Christ to them and to establish them in His way. God’s Truth is a powerful instrument in the hands of His Spirit. By the Spirit, may God’s truth bring conviction through His commandments and salvation through His Son.

Blessed be the only true God who has poured out His great mercy to bring us unto salvation through His Son Jesus Christ! To Him alone be the glory forever, amen!”

Below is an exciting real life example of the law being used to bring a sinner to Christ.

YOUR PRAYER: Holy Father, prepare me, Your vessel, to be mightily used of Thee, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Ready to test how good you are?

Abiding Under the Shadow of the Almighty [podcast]

“O Lord, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke. 16 Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: Jeremiah 15:15-16

Dwelling “in the secret place of the most High”

“He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.” Psalms 91:1-2

“In the secret place of the Most High – Spoken probably in reference to the Holy of holies. He who enters legitimately there shall be covered with the cloud of God’s glory – the protection of the all-sufficient God. This was the privilege of the high priest only, under the law: but under the new covenant all believers in Christ have boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus; and those who thus enter are safe from every evil.” Adam Clarke

“[Psalms] 91:1, 2 Jesus is the One who in a preeminent way dwelt in the secret place of the Most High, and abode under the shadow of the Almighty. There never was a life like His. He lived in absolute, unbroken fellowship with God, His Father. He never acted in self-will but did only those things that the Father directed. Though He was perfect God, He was also perfect Man, and He lived His life on earth in utter and complete dependence on God. Without equivocation He could look up and say, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in Him I will trust.” Believer’s Bible Commentary

Dwelling in the Secret Place of the Most High [podcast]

“And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” John 17:3 Prayer communion is inseparably connected with knowing God (John 17:3).

The Warnings of the Book of Jude [podcast]

“Reformed Theology“, is just a fancy way of saying ‘We know better than Paul, the old testament prophets, even David! And the very apostles who walked with Jesus must be unlearned men or liars.’ Nay, I will not say such a thing of my LORD and Saviour, Christ Jesus. Let God be true, and >every< man a liar.” Jonathan Crane

It’s “ungodly men” who mislead the gullible with the eternal security heresy, and the heretical doctrines and system of calvinism. Jude warned us of just that, as did the prophets (Jude 3-4; Jeremiah 23:17, etc.). Then Jude reminds us of God’s judgment upon His own covenant people who were saved out of Egypt (the world) and then “afterward destroyed.” Then Jude reminds us that God judged the angels, a third of them, who rebelled against Him and were terminated from His domain, Heaven (Isaiah 14:12-15; Luke 10:18; Revelation 12:7-12, etc.).

“For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. 5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. 6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.” Jude 4-6

The Book of Jude

Greeting

1 Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called:

2 Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.

Judgment on False Teachers

3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.

6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

8 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.

9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.

11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.

12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;

13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.

14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,

15 To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men’s persons in admiration because of advantage.

A Call to Persevere

17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,

21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

22 And of some have compassion, making a difference:

23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

Doxology

24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,

25 To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.

Attend to My Words [podcast]

IF THE WORD isn’t flowing into you daily, you are falling away. Flood and fuel your heart and mind and body with the pure, the holy light of God’s Word daily and you will never famish! All darkness will be vanquished (Psalms 119:130). All who have been saved and yet aren’t in God’s Word and prayer daily – have rejected Christ, with no exception. Re-turn to the LORD prodigal. There’s no good outside of Christ the KING.

“The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.” Psalms 119:130

ALL who are not in God’s written Word daily are not hearing from God, do not have God’s wisdom and direction, and are walking in darkness – 100%.

The feeding of Christ’s flock would integrally involve exhorting them to diligently study and walk in God’s Word themselves, daily (John 21:15-17). Isn’t this exactly what the apostle Paul told Timothy to do? Yes. He told his understudy to “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” (2 Timothy 2:15)

One of the ways we know who the false ministers are, is that they want people dependent on THEM, not God. So, they don’t constantly exhort the people to get into God’s Word, the Holy Scriptures, for themselves. Run.

“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.” Joshua 1:8

“He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live. … My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. 23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Proverbs 4:4, 20-23

“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.” Jeremiah 15:16

“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.” Colossians 3:16
