From the Back Cover

God's code of conduct is as relevant and insistent today as it's always been.

The landscape of contemporary society reveals signs that we neither know nor care much about the Law of God. There is:

· A general listlessness and lawlessness in the lives of professing Christians.

· An absence of the fear of God in public worship and private living.

· A growing confidence in ourselves and an accompanying loss of confidence ¿in God and His Word.

Amidst this moral crisis, the message of the Ten Commandments can give us order, direction, and hope.

With dynamic implications for how each of us lives every day, Pathway to Freedom will challenge you to think long and hard about the significance of God's Law.

Surveys in this "new age of faith" reveal that more than three-fourths of all Americans believe that "many religions can lead to eternal life." Staggeringly, nearly half of those who identify themselves as "highly committed" evangelicals agree with this statement. The extent of the confused muddle-headedness is frightful but no surprising. It is hear that the battle rages, and it is here that we must take our stand. Instead of mumbling some mushy religious pluralism, we need to be prepared to take our Bibles in hand and graciously, yet courageously, declare a worldview that begins with the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who in the person of His son Jesus (with whom He and the holy Spirit are co-equal and co-eternal) has stepped out of eternity and into time, demonstrating that He is neither anonymous nor vague.
