1st Commandment — Law Homily

The First Commandment cuts deeper than condemning ancient idols—it exposes the subtle god we worship every day: ourselves.

In this homily, we explore how our selfish desires, small compromises, and misplaced priorities become the very altars where we sacrifice our families, our faith, and our obedience. This commandment is not just about what we reject; it calls us to submit every action, especially the small ones, to the true and living God.

"And God spake all these words, saying, I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me." — Exodus 20:1–3

Series: Law Homilies Preacher: Robert J. Hewitt III (Elder Candidate)
