| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Daily Blade. The Word of God is described as the sword of the spirit, the primary |
| 0:07.2 | spiritual weapon in the Christian's armor against the forces of evil. Your hosts are Joby Martin |
| 0:12.8 | and Kyle Thompson, and they stand ready to equip men for the fight. Let's sharpen up. |
| 0:20.1 | All right, day five on the Ten Commandments. We're looking at Israel's response to the Ten |
| 0:25.0 | Commandments, that there is only one God, that you should cut out the idols, that you need to |
| 0:30.0 | watch your mouth, don't use the Lord's name in vain, that you should remember the Sabbath, |
| 0:33.7 | keep it holy, that you should honor your father and mother, that thou shall not murder, |
| 0:39.3 | that thou shall not commit adultery, that you shouldn't lie, you shouldn't steal, and you shouldn't |

| 1:30.3 | lest we die. Let me stop right there. A part of the difference between the old covenant and the |
| 1:35.8 | new covenant is this right here. You see, the people wanted a mediator between them and God. |
| 1:40.9 | They're like, we don't want to talk to God. We're scared. Moses, you talk to God, |
| 1:44.7 | and then you talk to us. Well, when Jesus Christ came and he died on the cross, the curtain in the |
| 1:50.3 | temple that separated the people of God from the presence of God was torn from the top to the |
