Like murder and adultery, most of us don't think of ourselves as “thieves.” And yet, we all have ways of taking, withholding, and justifying. We don't just break the commandment, we reinterpret it.Today, as we consider the Eighth Commandment, we ask: When does your heart decide the rules don't apply to you?
The Law of God and the Christian Life (Lesson 8)
This message on the Eighth Commandment challenges us to see that “You shall not steal” goes far beyond obvious acts of theft and into the deeper issues of ownership, trust, and the condition of our hearts. Because everything we have ultimately belongs to God, we are called not to be takers, but faithful stewards—honoring Him in how we work, give, and live. By exposing the subtle ways we take what isn’t ours and the heart attitudes behind them, this sermon points us to the Gospel: Jesus forgives our sin and transforms us from people who grasp and take into people who trust, give, and live open-handed for His glory.

The Eighth Commandment reaches far deeper than stolen property and exposes a far more pervasive sin: the theft of time from God Himself. This Easter homily confronts the quiet ways we squander the very days He has entrusted to us, revealing a debt we can never repay. Yet in the risen Christ, who perfectly fulfilled every moment and bore the weight of our wasted years, time itself is redeemed. The resurrection does not merely promise life after death, it reclaims every hour of the present, calling us to live each moment under the joyful lordship of the One who purchased them with His own blood.

March 5, 2026Today's Reading: Catechism: Eighth CommandmentDaily Lectionary: Genesis 24:1-31; Mark 7:24-37“We should fear and love God so that we do not tell lies about our neighbor, betray him, slander him, or hurt his reputation, but defend him, speak well of him, and explain everything in the kindest way.” (Luther's meaning for the Eighth Commandment)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.The Eighth Commandment! Thanks be to God for this commandment and Luther's explanation! After all, the tongue can be so destructive. It's teeny-tiny and yet can go scorched earth on a person's life, as James reminds us: “So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great things. How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! And the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, and set on fire by hell.” (James 3:5-6) Every one of us has had those moments when we stayed silent as gossip was shared, when we were delighted to share the faults and failures of others, when we embellished a story to make ourselves look better, or when we lied about someone to turn people against them. We have used our tongues as a wrecking ball. Reputations turned into rubble. Friendships fractured. Relationships ruined. Repent! All of us! Return to the Lord, for He is gracious and merciful! Go to His called and ordained man who uses his tongue to speak that passion-purchased pardon into our ears! “You are forgiven all for Jesus' sake!” Those words cover all the bad our tongues have done. What Good News that Christ only speaks well of you and me! Forgives us all sins! Defends us from every accusation from Slithery Serpent Satan! Yes, Jesus is no adversary like Satan but our Advocate! Before the Father, He continually pleads for us, showing the Father the very wounds that won peace! Peace with God! Peace with one another! Having been forgiven, we now strive to live at peace with all. Yes, our tongues have been set free to defend our neighbor, speak well of him, and explain everything in the kindest way. We now have the joy of imitating Jesus, who is our Advocate. Keep your eyes open every day for those opportunities to be an advocate to and for your neighbor. And when you sin with your tongue, what joy to hear once again Christ's forgiveness from the lips of your pastor. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.“Bear no false witness nor defame Your neighbor nor destroy his name, But view him in the kindest way; Speak truth in all that you say.” Have mercy, Lord! (LSB 581:9)Rev. Aaron Schian is pastor at Grace Lutheran Church in Auburn, MI.Audio Reflections Speaker: Rev. Richard Heinz, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Lowell, IN.We wander through life looking for freedom, only to realize we have listened to the devil's call to serve our selves, our pleasures, and our lusts. Instead of freedom we find ourselves enslaved to sin. We wonder if we have sinned too often, too deep to ever be welcomed back to the Father's home, back into His loving embrace. Have we lost our inheritance as children of God?In this short book, author Bryan Wolfmueller digs into the popular parable of the Prodigal Son to bring hope and aid to our hurting conscience. Wolfmueller proclaims the freedom-giving Gospel that through Jesus' suffering, death, and resurrection, our place in the Father's house is secure, and forgiveness and welcome are ours in His outstretched arms.

Today, Pastor Jeff zooms in on the Eighth Commandment, reminding us that taking anything that isn't ours is wrong. God cares about our character and calls us to be honest in both big and small choices. Ephesians 4:28 "Let the thief no longer steal. Instead, he is to do honest work with his own hands, so that he has something to share with anyone in need."

In this message, Pastor Daniel explores how the gospel transforms hearts that steal into hearts that serve. Drawing from the Eighth Commandment, he shows that God not only forbids stealing—but calls His people to faithful stewardship and selfless generosity. True obedience flows from gratitude for the eternal treasures we have by faith in Christ, as those once ruled by greed are renewed in Christ to give freely for the glory of God and the good of othersTime:AfternoonMinister:Rev.

Rabbi Josh Feigelson unpacks the 8th Commandment — “Don't Steal.” At first glance, it seems simple: don't take what isn't yours. But the Torah and Talmud reveal a deeper wisdom, connecting theft not only to property but to kidnapping, jealousy, and unchecked desire. Be in touch at josh@unpacked.media.
