6th Commandment

“Thou shalt not kill.” This short commandteaches the sanctity of human life. Becauseman was created in God’s image, every hu-man soul has worth (value). Therefore, todespise another person’s worth, or to callhim a person of no value, or to be angry with him without a cause, are seeds thatspring up in the heart that can lead tomurder—the deliberate, premeditatedtaking of another person’s life.

Israel’s law was—“He that smiteth aman, so that he die, shall be surely put to

death” —Ex. 21:12. And “the murderer shall surely be put to death” is repeated 3 timesin Num. 35:16–18. Israel’s law commandedcapital punishment.And history proves it tobe a strongdeterrent tomurder.

W h e ns o m e o n eaccidentally,

or uninten-tionally, killsanother per-son, that ismanslaugh-ter. And tokill some-one in self-defense, or indefense of other people, such as war, is notmurder. The OT relates many wars thatIsrael fought to protect the nation from

enemies.7th Commandment“Thou shalt not commit adultery” em-phasizes the sanctity of marriage andthe home. Adultery is always a terriblehome-breaker. “But whoso committethadultery with a woman lacketh under-standing: he that doeth it destroyeth hisown soul” —Prov. 6:32.

Jesus said, “whosoever looketh on awoman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart” —

Matt. 5:28. By this, Jesus said adultery canbegin when the eye stimulates the desire(lust). Prov. 7:10 speaks of the “attire (ap-

Why some oppose the

10 Commandmentsposted on walls or engraved in public places.

The 10 Commandments, also calledthe Decalogue, contain the essence

of God’s moral law, which is imbeddedin man’s conscience to give him a senseof justice and realization that he is notperfect and falls short of what he oughtto be.

About 3,500 years ago at Mt. Sinai,God gave to Israel, through Moses, the10 Commandments.

Many people today do not know thatthe 10 Commandments are a very im-portant part of scripture (Exodus 20) andthe Christian faith.

Commandments 1 through 4 deal withman’s relationship to God; these are basicand affect all other relationships.

1st Commandment“Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” The Lord Jehovah is the only God. Henever permits any rivalry, for we are Hiscreation and belong to Him. There is noother god; He is the only God.

Some imagine there are other godsand worship cows, other animals, or aparticular river, tree, etc. Some worshipthe earth; others look to the stars (horo-scope) for guidance. A few worship themind—man’s intellect. And many wor-ship things money can buy—cars, boats,clothes, bank account, position, entertain-ment, popularity, accomplishment, etc.

2nd Commandment“Thou shalt not make unto thee any gravenimage.” God is a Spirit; therefore, it is

blasphemy to seek to confine Him to ob-

jects or things—by bowing or praying tostatues, images, crucifixes, etc.3rd Commandment

“Thou shalt not take the name of the LORDthy God in vain; for the LORDwill not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.” God is holy; therefore, reverence mustcharacterize all speech using His name.The words “in vain,” mean idle (noth-ing meant by it, or irreverent). Somevent their frustration or anger by usingGod’s name, then defend it by saying,

“Oh, I didn’t mean anything by it.” Thatis the purpose of this command: God’sname should only be spoken or writtenin a meaningful, respectful manner. TheLord’s prayer begins, “Our Father whichart in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.” Tohallow God’s name means to reverenceand make His name special.

4th Commandment“Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.” This command begins with “Re-member,” for after God created all things,

He rested on the seventh day. Ancientpeople, no doubt, knew that the seventhday was to be holy. Israel also knew thatmanna did not appear the seventh day (Exo. 16:22–26). At Sinai, God commandedIsrael to keep the sabbath holy by restingfrom unnecessary work.

5th Commandment“Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land whichthe LORD thy God giveth thee.” Our firstrelationship is with our parents. To honor

means the child obeying his parents with arespectful attitude. When a child grows upand does not obey his parents, he usually has problems with others and especially those in authority. Adults are to continueto honor their parents by showing respectand concern for their welfare.

This command includes a promise:“that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.” It isrepeated in Eph. 6:2, 3, “Honour thy father and mother...That it may be well with thee,

and thou mayest live long on the earth.” This promise includes things going wellfor them in life.

Dr. Arlin Horton,Founder/President

In May, this letter came from a student.

Dear Dr. Horton,

As this semester concludes, I wanted totell you how much of a blessing PCChas been to me. God led me to thiscampus, and I am so grateful for this year in a college that God has a clearhand on. There have been many greatevangelists in our church and chapelservices. I’ve heard some of the best

messages I’ve ever heard. The spirit of this student body really is incredible.And Florida is gorgeous!

I’ve learned so much about the Biblethat I never knew before. I attendeda public school system all of my previous education, and I hope I willnever take for granted this Christ-focused education, faculty, staff, andadministration. Here, people truly love and have a passion for what Godhas called them to do.

This place has helped me to grow up alittle and has shown me how far I haveto go. PCC has standards and rules,which I never had before, but I deeply appreciate that PCC makes it hard todo what is wrong.

This place has so many outreach op-portunities. The retirement home Istarted going to has really blessed my heart. (I went there to be a blessing tothem, and let me tell you. . . they werethe ones blessing me.) I’ve learnedthe truth, “It’s better to give than toreceive.”

The residence halls are well kept, thecampus is well maintained, and thelandscaping is a blessing from God.I always see about a dozen squirrelsin the morning and throughout theday.

This letter is not much, but I mean itfrom my heart. Lord willing, I’ll behere in September.

parel) of an harlot.” Many young girls orinnocent women do not realize that im-modest attire, such as suggestive, revealing,provocative or vulgar clothing can temptthe opposite sex to adultery, sexual impro-prieties, or even rape.

8th Commandment“Thou shalt not steal” emphasizes thesanctity of personal property. Stealing iswrong, whether it is cheating on a test,income taxes, or the many other wayspeople steal. “Let him that stole steal nomore” —Eph. 4:28.

9th Commandment“Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour” emphasizes the sanctity of an-other person’s reputation. God commands

us to speak the truth in all matters. To“bear false witness” is more inclusive thanlying, for bearing false witness includes

various types of de-ception—with

or withoutwords beingspoken.Eph. 4:25 says,

“Where fore putting away lying, speak

e v e r y m a ntruth with hisneighbour.”

In Acts 5,Ananias andSapphira liedabout money they gave to

the church.When asked separately about the amount,they each lied. That day, Ananias droppeddead and later his wife. The church quick-

ly learned that God judges those who lie.Today, lying seems almost universaland is excused by many. Even Christianssay, “Well, everybody lies sometimes.”No, they don’t. God warns in Ps. 101:7,“he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.”

10th Commandment“Thou shalt not covet” emphasizes thesanctity of the human heart for God.God wants our hearts to be contented andsatisfied with Him. When we want any

thing so badly that it disturbs our innerpeace, we violate the command, “Thoushalt not covet.”

Some consider coveting to be merely wanting something, or someone, that be-longs to a friend or neighbor. But it couldbe an item in a store, catalog, or Internet,where the owner is unknown or far-off.

Jesus said, “beware of covetousness: for a

man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth” — Luke 12:15.

The way to victory over coveting is to letGod control what we want.

The 10 Commandments reveal God’sperfect character and man’s faulty charac-ter. They convince us that we are sinners,“for by the law is the knowledge of sin” —Rom. 3:20. The law brings conviction tothe soul and creates a need to be forgiven.

For that reason, some people oppose the10 Commandments being posted on wallsor engraved in public places.

Why? Because the 10 Commandmentsmake a person painfully aware of his failureto be what he ought to be, and therefore,he senses in his heart a deep need that hecannot meet.

“Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be

justified by faith” —Gal. 3:24. In past years, aschoolmaster was a servant who accompa-

nied a child to school and left him there to betaught. In the same way, the law is to bringus to Christ, the only One who can forgiveand save our souls. No one is saved by keep-ing the law or by doing good works.

The 10 Commandments never rescue aperishing soul, nor start a person on theroad to heaven. But they hold up a standardfor us to measure ourselves by. And whenthe person sees himself guilty before a holy God and hears that Christ paid for his sin atCalvary, he is often ready to come to Jesus

Christ for forgiveness and an eternal homein heaven.

Jesus summarized the last 5 Command-ments as “Thou shalt love thy neighbour asthyself” —Matt. 22:39.

The apostle Paul wrote NT believ-ers— “Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thoushalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet;and if there be any other commandment,

it is briefly comprehended in this saying,namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour asthyself” —Rom. 13:9.

Coaches Jim Hazewinkel and twin brother DaveHazewinkel are former Olympic wrestlers. On arecent PCC Eagles wrestler trip, they wrestled,along with the PCC Eagles team, at the Ama-teur Athletic Union Wrestling Tournamentat Ford Field, home of the Detroit Lions.

Twelve hundred participants, from tots tomasters, wrestled on 18 mats spread out on

the field. The Eagles team wrestled in theSenior Division and brought home 2nd,3rd, 5th, and 6th places. The Hazewinkelbrothers wrestled in the Masters Division(over age thirty). Each of them placed—Coach Dave H. in 4th and Coach Jim H.coming in as Champion.

Coach Jim said, “We were the oldest wres-tlers there. There aren’t too many peopleage 59 who are still wrestling.” He joked abouthis wrestling mistakes, “The biggest one was

forgetting to take off my glasses. I got to the matand the opponent said, ‘You might want to getrid of those.’”

According to them, the greatest victories werethe three souls led to Christ. Since Coach Jimhas been at PCC, over seventy wrestlers havecome to Christ.

In high school, the Hazewinkel twins weighedonly 98 lbs. each and always felt too small forbasketball or football. Jim said, “Then someoneasked, ‘Why don’t you try out for wrestling? Then

you would be competing against someone yourown size.’” Little did that person know that hehad prompted two future Olympic wrestlers.

Their wrestling careers began in high school andflourished at St. Cloud State University. Jim became

the first and only wrestler to win a National titlefor the university four years in a row, whichmade him the third wrestler in the NationalAssociation of Intercollegiate Athletes (NAIA)to win four National championships. Daveplaced second in National during his juniorand senior years.

After three years of college, Jim and Dave weredrafted into the army during the Vietnam War.“They were hoping to get in Special Servicesand wrestle for the army team, but the day before they were to leave for further trainingto go to Vietnam, they received orders for WestPoint military academy as assistant wrestlingcoaches. “The Lord worked it out,” says Dave.

“And that’s where we began training for the Olympics,”Jim says.

While in the army, both brothers made the 1968 Olym-pic wrestling team and competed on two world teams.After the army, the brothers finished their education atSt. Cloud State University and competed on two moreworld teams and the 1972 Olympics.

Now the twins are together again at PCC, andthey still wrestle, while they also coach wrestling.Through the years, the PCC Eagles wrestling teamhas experienced great success by regularly winningnational titles.

“What I really appreciate is the widevariety of experience,” says JoshLinder (’04 grad). “We were hands-

on with sports that I was not usedto, such as baseball and track andfield. The officiating classes gave mea whole new respect for the sportsbecause I learned how games areplayed and the rules of the game.Officiating is not like playing a little basketball. Youreally have to know the sport. The coaching classes hadprojects such as making playbooks, watching practices,and learning to do the scoring, which prepared mewell for coaching.”

PCC’s physical education department is commit-ted to preparing Christians for leadership.

Interested in Sports Management?

The sports managementmajor prepares graduatesfor sports-related profes-

sions. Leaders are needed inmany service-oriented busi-nesses today. To meet that need,sports management combineswith physical education classesand business classes to preparegraduates for advertising, mar-keting, employee management,and communication in the many

“PCC’s engineering program gaveme the technical foundation to suc-ceed in the secular business market.After working with graduates fromlarge public universities, I foundthat my engineering degree pre-pared me very well for my field.”

Electrical engineers are problem-solvers who design electrical, elec-tronic, and microcomputer cir-cuits. They improve communica-

tions systems, advance computertechnology, and design microproc-essors for a variety of applications.The common cell phone, for ex-ample, employs the research of electrical engineers who designedits antenna system, signal process-ing, and circuit programs.

Labs Engineering state-of-the-artlabs assist PCC students in apply-ing the design principles learned

in class. They canalso test and meas-ure v ibrat ions ,make use of specialinstrumentation,learn about elec-t r i c a l c i r c u i t sand systems, gethands-on experi-ence with heat andpower design, and

the mechanics of variousmaterials.

The new electrical en-gineering lab providescircuit analysis, micro-processor programming, com-munication systems, and elec-tronic design. It also housescomputer-assisted equipmentto generate signals, measurethem, and conceptualize circuit

designs.

To study engineering is to study the fundamental laws of God’screation. PCC engineeringmajors learn that the Christianengineer’s job is not just money or success, but it is also servingthe Lord and bringing glory toHis name in that profession.

Friday afternoon, they toured the Academy while schoolwas in session; most had not seen the PCA (1995) building. Then they went to the former St. John high school(recently renovated), which brought back memories tomany who taught there. Friday evening, Dr. and Mrs.Horton honored them and the current fac./staff whoserved during those years with a special banquet in theMacKenzie Great Hall.

At the age of 26, Alexisde Tocqueville, a famousFrench statesman, historian,and social philosopher, vis-ited America in the 1830’s todiscover what made her sogreat. He studied Americafrom rural to urban, coast-

line to inland, and publishedhis observations in a classictwo-volume work, Democ-racy in America. Here is anexcerpt from his work:

“I sought for the key tothe greatness and genius of America in her harbors; . . .and boundless forests; in herrich mines . . . and institu-tions of learning. I sought

for it in her democraticcongress and in her match-less Constitution. Not untilI went into the churchesof America and heard herpulpits flame with right-eousness did I understandthe secret of her genius andpower.”

“America is great becauseAmerica is good, and if

America ever ceases to begood, America will cease tobe great. The safeguard of morality is religion, andmorality is the best security of law as well as the surestpledge of freedom.”

—Democracy in America by Alexis de Tocqueville

“If Americaceases to be good,

America will ceaseto be great”—de Tocqueville
