Pastor Andrew preaches from Exodus 20:15, “You shall not steal,” showing that the commandment reaches far beyond robbery or taking physical property. Because everything ultimately belongs to God, believers must respect what God has entrusted to others and steward their own possessions faithfully. Stealing includes dishonest business practices, withheld wages, unpaid debts, wasted work time, deception, and any attempt to gain what is not rightfully ours. Pastor Andrew explains that theft often grows out of unbelief and discontentment, when we doubt God’s provision and desire what belongs to someone else. Drawing from Ephesians 4:28, he emphasizes that repentance turns takers into honest workers and generous givers. In Christ, who became poor so sinners might become rich in grace, even thieves can be forgiven and transformed into content, hardworking, generous people.
