October 9, 2025Today's Reading: Catechism: Table of Duties - Of Civil GovernmentDaily Lectionary: Deuteronomy 8:1-20; Matthew 10:24-42“Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and he will commend you. For he is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the wrong-doer.” (Small Catechism- Of Civil Government) In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.In all likelihood, if you're listening to this, you're probably not a criminal. But you're still a sinner. And you still struggle with this, just like everyone else. Because you, like everyone else, are hardwired to absolutely. Despise. Authority. In all its forms. You can see this if you pop way back to Genesis. Our first parents were given a law: do not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the Garden. One rule. One law. Directly from the one authority, the Almighty LORD, who was in their midst. Broken, promptly. Ever since then, we have been hardwired to buck and kick against authority. All of creation has as well. Ever tried to ride a wild horse? Or get a donkey to go where he really doesn't want to? You learn very quickly that authority does not come naturally to us. We hate it. We resist it. Because we have the same illness that Adam and Eve had. We want to be like God. Hence, Dr. Luther's admonishment here in this table is for our good. Because, like he says, rulers are not a terror to good conduct, to the “good guys,” but to bad conduct. It is through the arm of civil government that God grants us peace in our days. Will there be bad government? Absolutely. History is rife with examples of not just bad, but downright evil governments. And we are citizens of this Kingdom here on this earth, good or bad, and we have to keep the Fourth Commandment, good or bad. So yes, there will be bad kingdoms. But God will sort them out. He always does. But as for you, dear saints in Christ, revel in the fact that you are ultimately a subject of the kingdom of heaven, and that supersedes anything on Earth.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.O merciful Father in heaven, because You hold in Your hand all the might of man and because You have ordained, for the punishment of evildoers and for the praise of those who do well, all the powers that exist in all the nations of the world, we humbly pray You graciously to regard Your servants, our President; the Congress of the United States; our Governor; and all those who make, administer, and judge our laws; that all who receive the sword as Your ministers may bear it according to Your Word; through Jesus Christ, our Lord.

Sermons from McLean Presbyterian & Capital Presbyterian Fairfax
The fourth commandment from our ten commandment sermon series "That You May Live"
We live in a world that never stops—and we're exhausted. But God built a rhythm of rest into creation, not as a burden, but as a blessing. Long before the Ten Commandments, he invited his people to trust him enough to stop. Join us as we rediscover the beauty of the Sabbath: a day to remember, a day to worship, and a day to truly rest.1) Sabbath in the Old Testament2) Sabbath in the New Testament3) Sabbath in the Christian lifeText: Exodus 20:8-11
You might think the fourth commandment “honor your father and mother” is just for kids… but actually it applies to you too.
Free Grace Baptist Church, Chilliwack, BC Pastors: Jim Butler, Cam Porter
As we continue to see the character of God revealed in the 10 commandments, God specifically through the 4th commandment shows his followers how to honor, worship, and remember the work that he has done for them as they observe the Sabbath. Exodus 20:8-11.
In this episode of Christ the Center, Camden Bucey and Carlton Wynne are joined by Rev. Stephen Spinnenweber, author of Loving the Law: The Law of God in the Life of the Believer, to explore the enduring significance of God's moral law in the Christian life. They discuss the book's development, its theological foundations, and its practical applications for pastors, congregants, and Christian parents. The conversation clarifies the Reformed understanding of the threefold use of the law and addresses common misconceptions surrounding legalism and antinomianism. Stephen offers a pastoral and theologically rich vision for delighting in the law as a gracious guide for believers—one rooted in God's character and purpose for humanity. The trio also touches on civil use of the law, the Sabbath, and the broader cultural and political implications of God's moral order. This episode is a refreshing call to recover a joyful obedience to God's commandments—not as a means of earning salvation, but as the grateful response of those saved by grace and empowered by the Spirit.
