“Sin All Dolled Up”
Radio Commentary, 90.7, 91.7 New Life FM, July 4, 2014 – By Sue Ella Deadwyler
Good morning, Jim. A recently published article explains how liberalism violates all of the Ten Commandments. The author said, “[Leftist ideology] is sin, all dolled up and doled out,” and proceeded to prove it with each Commandment.
The First Commandment says, “Thou shalt have no other Gods before me,” but liberalism denies the existence of God and substitutes religious pluralism. Secular humanism denies God altogether and crowns man king over himself and everything else.
The Second Commandment says not to make graven images, but liberalism worships things instead of the Creator and the sins of the flesh instead of the Son of God who became flesh.
The Third Commandment says not to take the Lord’s Name in vain, but liberalism elevates things to god-status and denies Christ with unbelief and profanity.
The Fourth Commandment tells us to keep the Sabbath holy, but liberalism denies the significance of the Sabbath, whether it’s observed on Saturday under the Old Testament or Sunday, the first day of the week when Christ arose and Christians assemble.
The Fifth Commandment says to honor father and mother, but liberalism diminishes parental authority and encourages children to rebel against mom and dad. Liberalism also denies that children need a mother and father and works to eliminate such “sexist” words.
The Sixth Commandment says, “Thou shalt not kill,” but liberalism promotes abortion for the unborn and euthanasia for the handicapped or elderly.
The Seventh Commandment says, “Thou shalt not commit adultery,” but liberalism embraces unfaithfulness in marriage, fornication, homosexuality, bestiality, incest, and transsexuality.
The Eighth Commandment says do not steal, but liberalism takes money from workers to give to those that won’t or don’t work.
The Ninth Commandment says we’re not to lie, but liberalism says the end justifies the means.
The Tenth Commandment says, “Thou shalt not covet,” but liberals exploit economic envy and class warfare to agitate for redistribution under the guise of “fairness” and “social justice.”

The U.S.A. became great by following the Ten Commandments as God wrote them. On this July 4th, we must remember that “One nation under God” can remain only if we repent and return to Him!
