The Ten Commandments are not what is meant in the Bible as “The Law”.

Are we living on the right mountain? The 10 commandments were given on Mount Sinai, but Jesus and the Holy Spirit were presented on Mount Zion. That is why the Bible says that “you have not come to the mountain [Sinai] that may be touched and that burned with fire, and to blackness and darkness and tempest… But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels”. (Hebrews 12:18, 22)

The Lord blesses us out of Zion (Psalm 128:5), and not Sinai!

By grace we have been saved through faith. (Ephesians 2:8) Let's live on the right mountain!

Live on the right mountain, love that! Immediately made me think of Psalm 110’s obvious prophecy of Christ Jesus:

“The LORD says to my Lord:
“Sit at my right hand,
until I make your enemies your footstool.”

The LORD sends forth from Zion
your mighty scepter.
Rule in the midst of your enemies!”
