The great principles of
God's law are embodied in the Ten Commandments and exemplified in the life of
Christ. They express God's love, will, and purposes concerning human conduct
and relationships and are binding upon all people in every age. These precepts
are the basis of God's covenant with His people and the standard in God's judgment.
Through the agency of the Holy Spirit they point out sin and awaken a sense of
need for a Saviour. Salvation is all of grace and not of works, but its
fruitage is obedience to the Commandments. This obedience develops Christian
character and results in a sense of well-being. It is an evidence of our love
for the Lord and our concern for our fellow men. The obedience of faith
demonstrates the power of Christ to transform lives, and therefore strengthens
Christian witness.
