that's when you feel the fracture.

When you're disconnected from eternity, when you're disconnected from the eternity that God has put in the hearts of men, Ecclesiastes 3.11, when there's that disconnect, then you feel the rub.

And so everything is meant to bring us back into real harmony with,

But you can't get there without truth because how would you know?

And that is the role of the Holy Spirit.

You go back and read John, the Gospel of John.

That's the primary role of the Spirit.

When He comes, He will guide you into all truth.

He will make known to you what was given to the Son.

And that's a process that we never get to the end of on this side of eternity or this side of the second coming because we do live in a world where lies about reality are so pervasive and so intoxicating that we just, I don't know, we buy into it.

And that's one of the reasons why Christ died is to liberate you from your propensity to believe in a lie.

Do not covet.

Thou shalt not covet.

One of the funny things that Francis Schaeffer points out in his book, one of my favorite books of all time, is called True Spirituality by Francis Schaeffer.

And one of the points he makes in the book, it's really profound.

He takes the Ten Commandments and he says,

explains it as a wheel, like a wheel on a bicycle.

And each one of those hubs, each one of those spokes on that wheel is a commandment.

And the center of that whole thing, he says, is the 10th commandment, thou shalt not covet.

And he makes the point, you can't violate any of the first nine commandments without first violating the 10th.
