O knihe

Often viewed as the archaic rules of a civilization long past, the Ten Commandments have been pushed aside and ignored by modern society. Even strong Christians maintain a diverse collection of opinions about the Ten Commandments--a miracle cure-all, a holy obligation, laws irrelevant in an age of grace, and many more.

No matter how they are viewed, these deceptively simple words are packed with meaning and hold a power and significance many Christians have lost sight of. Written Upon the Heart reveals the necessity of God's Law for contemporary believers by studying the historical purpose, meaning, and modern relevance of the Commandments.

Presented with rich background and compelling humor, Written upon the Heart shows that the words of God should not just be read or simply commited to memory, but written upon the heart of every believer.

""I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.""
--Jeremiah 31:33

""Written upon the Heart is a practical, readable treatment of the Ten Commandments. . . . It deals with some of the tough questions about the Law with insight and skillfully applies the words given to Moses to the men and women of today.""
--Haddon Robinson
