LESSON: Be Resolute About Life's Value - Deuteronomy 5:17; 19-7-13; 24:6-7; Matthew 5:17-20
Biblical Truth - God expects His people to go beyond simply refraining from murder to protecting innocent life and demonstrating they value life.
Fulfilling God's Commandment Against Murder - Deut. 5:17; Matt. 5:17-20
Jesus said that He came not to destroy the law but to fulfill it.
Protecting The Innocent, Punishing The Guilty - Deut. 19:7-13
The cities helped the Israelites avoid shedding Innocent blood.
Safeguarding Life's Value - Deut. 24:6-7
Taking a family's millstones in essence was taking a life as security.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY WISHES...
