Plague, Precept, Prophet, Peace: God's Ten Liberating Commandments

King David said, "Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law." (Psalms 119:18)

If you see in the Ten Commandments not beauty but utilitarian rules or inflexible dogmatism, you have not seen the law.

If you sought a world whose history is governed by God's universal, objective rules but see only moral anarchy and injustice, you have not seen the law at work.

If you have been seeking a path to maturity and spiritual peace outside of God's law because it seems irrelevant, you have not seen the law at work for you.

Talking history, this book proves God judged ten world empires according to the Ten Commandments, one commandment per empire, chronologically. As prophesied by Job and Revelation, these events demonstrate the power of the commandments to shape not only world history, but shape your history.

Talking personal growth in worldly matters, this book shows the commandments are seeds. Once sprouted, they power a Growth Pattern which King Solomon put in Ecclesiastes to guide us through our time "under the sun".

Talking spiritual growth in heavenly matters, this book shows how those sprouting seeds also power Jesus' Harvest Pattern from Matthew. By it you can reap spiritual harvests, like victory over depression, anxiety, purposelessness and the fear of death.

Talking emotional support, this book shows how the Psalms are meditations on the law. The psalter is carefully arranged into sections. Psalms 1-28 are ordered as a companion to Solomon's Growth pattern, with meditations for every stage of life. Another collection of fifty psalms shows that God has prophetically "been there" for his people from beginning to end. They are arranged to show that God knew how his children would feel during every era in history, marking every turbulent emotion and answering heartfelt prayers with action and consolation. You will see that God knows how you are feeling, listens to your prayers, and has a plan to comfort you.

Proverbs 9 tells us that Lady Wisdom has built her house. This book will walk you through her blueprints. The precepts of the Law are the foundation of her house.

Lastly, the epilogue shows from the Bible God's specific, itemized, quantified plan for the liberation of women from oppression, presenting the Motherhood pattern. Jesus will not leave any of his Father's children behind.
