Does the Bible have commandments besides the Ten Commandments?
Yes. The Bible includes commandments beyond the Ten Commandments. Scripture teaches that whenever it stipulates something, such as husbands loving their wives as Christ loved the church, that stipulation itself becomes a commandment. The notion that only the Ten Commandments are commandments is described as foolishness.
Les explains that many people wrongly think the only commandments are the Ten Commandments. He says that is foolishness, because whenever the Bible stipulates something, it becomes a commandment. For example, in Ephesians 5:25, God commands husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church. Les contrasts this with the fact that God never commanded the wife to love the husband; instead, He created the woman with a responder. So any biblical stipulation, like husbands loving their wives, is a commandment beyond the Ten.
