How would our country look if it truly did recognize the supremacy of God in practice? I believe we would see Judeo-Chri¥¥an values being encouraged through- out society, since it is the Judeo-Christian heritage which brought mono- theism to the world's "attention. -The Ten Command- ments, recorded in the Bible (Exodts 20), provide a starting point for détermining Canada's commitment . to the supremacy of God. Space does not permit addressing all ten commandments, sometimes referred to as the moral law, but I will refer to a few by way of illustration.

For example, social planners, educational institutions, and govern- ment burealieracies have created a society where children can receive birth control counselling and products, daughters can even be referred for abortions, and all this without parents knowing a thing about it. Children can leave home in their early teen years, prior to the age of legal accountability, and parents can do nothing to stop them. Kids know their ""rights", and increasingly exercise them. How does, this honour parents? The moral Jaw prohibits adultery: "You shalt not commit adultery". Yet adultery is paraded across our TV screens and permeates our literature, making it appear everyone is involved. And no one seems to notice this is ripping families apart, destroying the foundation of pur society. The moral law warns against lying, stealing, and' greed. Yet these problems saturate contemporary Canadian culture.

Our society is glutted with men and women looking out for themselves regardless of . who gets hurt in the process. While our country verbalizes a commitment to the supremacy of God, it remains for Christians to demonstrate this corftmit. ment by obeying God's commands.
