The eighth commandment, you shall not give false testimony against your neighbor, is not just a command to tell the truth in court. It is a God who cares about your reputation every bit as much as He cares about your earthly possessions. You can steal my wallet. I’ll get a new one. Fixing a bad reputation is harder. God calls us to help our neighbors to stand with integrity by speaking of them the same way God sees them: holy, precious, and worthy of love.

We know the collar is intimidating. For some reason people think it’s the job of the pastor to dig through their lives to find sin. It is the pastor’s job to speak God’s law in all of its truth and purity, but God establishes government to establish good order by punishing sins. Your pastor teaches God’s law, and then reproves it so that he can forgive the sins you bring to him.

Greed is everywhere in the world, and it causes a lot of pain. Greedy hearts break the 7thcommandment, not just in stealing, but in working against our neighbor’s wellbeing. The problem is, when more stuff becomes your god, it never saves, and never even brings true enjoyment. These things come from God. He even gives us earthly gifts to enjoy and use in service to our neighbor. When you steal from others, you’ll never have enough, but if your eyes are on the Lord, everything you receive from Him is plenty.

God’s law shows just how common sin is. Stealing is not just taking something that doesn’t belong to you. It’s working against your neighbor’s possessions. That includes enough to call us all sinners who deserve death. Thanks be to God that He would be crucified between thieves to save them. We can look at the fullness of the commandment knowing our Lord bears the cross to save us as well.
