About the speaker:

Sam is a native of Spanish Harlem, and was raised by Catholic immigrant parents who came to the Christian faith when Sam was a young boy. Sam came to own the Christian faith for himself in his late high school years. Sam worked as a school teacher in the south Bronx and Brooklyn before graduating from Westminster Theological Seminary (M.Div.). Sam lives in North Jersey with his wife and family, and has few dreams greater than to see all of North Jersey worshipping Jesus Christ as Lord and King over all of life.

Q&A's

Question 113
What is God’s will for you in the tenth commandment?

Answer
That not even the slightest desire or thought contrary to any one of God’s commandments should ever arise in our hearts. Rather, with all our hearts we should always hate sin and delight in all righteousness.

Question 114
But can those converted to God keep these commandments perfectly?

Answer
No. In this life even the holiest have only a small beginning of this obedience. (1) Nevertheless, with all seriousness of purpose, they do begin to live according to all, not only some, of God’s commandments.

Question 115
Since no one in this life can keep the Ten Commandments perfectly, why does God want them preached so pointedly?

Answer
First, so that all our life long we may more and more come to know our sinful nature and thus more eagerly seek the forgiveness of sins and righteousness in Christ. Second, so that we may never stop striving and never stop praying to God for the grace of the Holy Spirit, so that we may be renewed more and more after God’s image, until after this life we reach our goal: perfection.
