7th Commandment (Part 1)

Ten CommandmentsSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses the 7th Commandment of the Bible in Exodus 20, which forbids adultery. Gregg highlights that adultery harms not only the marriage partner but also society's God-given relationship of marriage. He emphasizes the gravity of the sin and how engaging in sexual acts with someone other than one's spouse is not only a personal act of infidelity but a crime against God himself. Gregg also warns about the dangers of mental adultery and the importance of modesty and self-control in a Christian's conduct.
