Re-embracing a Creational Identity

To truly understand the Ten Commandments, we have to see them in the context of covenant and creation. In fact, at their core, they are an invitation by God for his people to reassume their identity they were created for - worshippers and image bearers to the world. This is why Jesus would later summarize the law in two big ideas: love God and love your neighbor. And at the center of this call to true identity is heart transformation, not simply external obedience.
