That’s what it says on the front page of the newsletter of the Mangonui School (Issue 4 3 April 2014)
“Hooked on Learning.”
I really like that. I am hooked on Learning. Who else is hooked on Learning? Or even a better question: Who is hooked on Learning the decrees and laws of the Lord? The Bible tells us to learn the decrees and laws of the Lord.
We find the Ten Commandments in Deuteronomy chapter five. There it says:
1. “You shall have not other gods before me.”
2. “You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything …”
3. “You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, …”
4. “Observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy, ..
5. “Honor you father and your mother, …”
6. “You shall not murder.”
7. “You shall not commit adultery.”
8. “You shall not steal.”
9. “You shall not give false testimony …”
10. “You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife …”
We must not only be hooked on Learning the decrees and laws of the Lord, but we must also be hooked on following the decrees and laws of the Lord.
