Rules for the saved
We misread the Ten Commandments when we think of them as stand-alone rules or general humanistic principles applicable for secular society. The best way to read them is as theological clues — they tell us about God and about life lived in light of God.
Paul’s teaching in Rom. 12:1-2 gives us a good sense of how to think of the Commandments: Due to God’s mercy, present your lives to God. Resist conformity with the surrounding world and instead allow your minds to be renewed in light of God’s love for you.
