How do we know the Ten Commandments are still relevant?

Answered in 1 source

The Ten Commandments remain relevant as they reflect God's unchanging moral law, highlighting human sinfulness and the need for salvation.

The Ten Commandments, received during the Sinaiatic Covenant, are pivotal in understanding God's moral law. Romans 5:20 indicates that the law reveals sin and makes individuals aware of their offenses before God. The commandments serve not just as a moral checklist, but as a diagnostic tool to show humanity's utter inability to attain righteousness through their efforts, ultimately pointing to the necessity of Christ's redemptive work. While we are no longer bound to the ceremonial aspects of the law, the moral imperatives of the Ten Commandments continue to convict, guide, and point believers toward the character of God as they live in response to His grace.
