7.7.19- A Law for God's People
Use the following thoughts and questions to have a spiritual conversation as a family. Don’t emphasize having the right
answer, but focus on spending time discussing the Word as a family.
• Why does God want our family to live differently from those who don’t know God?
• How has our family seen God’s commandments broken?
• What steps can our family take, in addition to obeying God’s commandments, to be set apart from those who don’t know God?
Scripture
Exodus 19:3-6; 20:1-8,12-17Session Summary
Moses went up on the mountain to meet with God and God told Moses the exact laws He would give to the people. We know these laws as the Ten Commandments. God spoke to Moses about ways the people were to relate to God and to each other. While it can be easy to see rules and laws as a hassle, God’s law is for our good. It teaches us how to have God-honoring relationships with God Himself, other people, and the world around us. We obey these laws out of love for our God, who loves His people, even in the ways He sets boundaries for us.Conversation Questions
