THE THIRD COMMANDMENT
The Third Commandment
Adrian Rogers
Exodus 20
Turn to Exodus chapter twenty and we'll take up our reading in the first verse and we'll read the verses leading to our text by means or by way of review and recapitulation.

In the country they say what's down in the well comes up in the bucket. Now, this is particularly true in the way that we talk abo ...
