You may remember, as I do, watching in wonder as you saw the commandments of God miraculously carved into stone in the classic film, "The Ten Commandments." If the heart of a gentile boy in Baltimore could sense the wonder of the moment, imagine the pride that a physical descendent of Abrahamam might feel, contemplating the same scene. The Jews were called out of heathen darkness to be a light to all nations, and they were called by God to keep certain laws and ceremonies in order to set them apart from all others, and to point to the promised redeemer.

Pastor Russ says, "I believe this message will inform your mind and feed your soul."
