About this ebook
God’s code of conduct is as relevant and insistent today as it’s always been.
The landscape of contemporary society reveals that we neither know nor care much about the Law of God. There is:
- A general lawlessness in the lives of professing Christians.
- An absence of the fear of God in public worship and private living.
- A growing confidence in ourselves and doubt concerning God and His Word.
Amidst this moral crisis, the message of the Ten Commandments can give us order, direction, and hope.
With dynamic implications for how each of us lives every day, Pathway to Freedom will challenge you to think long and hard about the significance of God’s Law.
“We have entered into a time of moral crisis in our culture and in the church as well. Stories about divorce, adultery, and the individualized picking and choosing of doctrines abound. Pathway to Freedom is forthright and necessary teaching that today’s church cannot afford to ignore. How now shall we live? The beginning of the answer must be in obedience to God’s moral law summarized in the Ten Commandments.”
—CHARLES COLSON, PRISON FELLOWSHIP MINISTRIES, WASHINGTON, D.C.

Reviews for Pathway to Freedom
1 rating1 review
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I enjoyed this fresh look at how God’s Laws should guide our lives. Some of my favorite quotes include:
"Unless there is a God who is himself Goodness and Justice, there can be no ultimate moral basis for the law. For if there is no God, nothing can take his place. No human standard-no person, no group of people, no document is immune to challenge." Arthur Leff
Ironically, legalism seems to breed best where the Law of God is regarded as having no abiding place as a rule of life in the child of God.
“If I profess with the loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of the truth of God except precisely that little point which the world and the devil are at that moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ, however boldly I may be professing Christ. Where the battle rages, there the loyalty of the soldier is proved, and to be steady on all the battlefield besides is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that point.” Martin Luther
It is not enough to worship the correct God. We must worship the correct God correctly.
“When Sunday is swallowed up by the weekend and loses its uniqueness, its holiness, as the Lord’s Day, then you and I are the inevitable losers. We cannot, by taking shortcuts, gain what the Sabbath is designed to give us. McSabbath may satisfy the immediate itch, but it cannot satisfy our souls.” from Celebrating the Sabbath by Bruce A Ray
God’s Provision
How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How deep the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory
Stuart Townend
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand
Stuart Townend and Keith Getty
