Introduction by Jason Pagel
Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5
Winter/Spring 2025
I am the LORD your God who brought you out of Egypt…
Exodus 20:2
From the very beginning, God made us free. We were always free to choose. It was the choice that love requires. He did not force us. He freely invited us. And when we chose to walk away, He chose not to. When we became slaves, He rescued us. He “brought us out…with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm” (Deut. 5:15). He made us free all over again. And then, with ten words, He invited us to remain free. Don’t go back. Don’t let yourself be enslaved all over again. This is not just their story. This is our story. We are still free to choose. He is setting before us life and death, blessings and curses. By His grace, we are beckoned once again to be MADE FREE.
