20. What will offend those that love the Ten Commandments? Psalm 119:165. 
Note: It is sad to say, but true indeed, that a compromising spirit has crept into the Churches. They all want to be bosses and obey nobody. God’s children love to be obedient, and honor their elders, and entreat them as a father. Which class are you in: compromising or Christian? We are all bought with the blood of Christ, and we are not our own. We cannot do as we please. That is the Bible standard. Judas did not respect Christ, neither did he entreat him as a father; but secretly sold Him for 30 pieces of silver. Why didn’t he go to Christ and talk matters over before he went to the enemy? Stand by the truth, do not allow the enemy to confuse you with all winds of doctrine.
