We need to understand what the bible says, and how its principles can apply to all situations of life to give us guidance. For example, the bible clearly tells us:
- Worship God, not idols (Ex. 20:3-4)
- Honor your parents (Eph. 6:1-3)
- Don't murder (Ex. 20:13)
- Don't commit adultery (Heb. 13:4)
- Don't lie (Ex. 20:16)
- Forgive others (Mark 11:25)
- Don't marry an unbeliever (2 Cor. 6:14-15)
- Help a brother in need (1 John 3:16-19)
- Don't steal (Eph. 4:28)
- Be reconciled quickly to the person with whom you have a dispute (Matt. 5:23-24)
The list could go on and go on, but the point is this: The bible is full of God's clear commands that offer us direction for most of life's decisions. The more we know the God's written, the more quickly we will know what God wants us to do.
