RELIGION - THE TEN COMMANDMENTS

The Ten Commandments Bible list — What are the Ten Commandments?

The Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:2-17 NKJV)

1        “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of
Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods
before Me.  (The worshipping of pagan gods or other instruments of
worship contrary to the laws laid down by the Lord, Thy God!)

2        “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any
likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth
beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow
down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a
jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to
the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing
mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My
Commandments.  (All Houses of Worship, regardless of there places
of worship,  must abide by the Ten Commandments as laid down by
God to Moses on the Mount!)

3.        “You shall not take the name
of the Lord your God in vain, for the
Lord will not hold him guiltless who
takes His name in vain. (You should not
swear, or curse at anyone; or use any
language that insults the "Lord, Thy
God!)

4.        “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you
shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath
of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son,
nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant,
nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in
six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all
that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord
blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

5        “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be
long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.  (This
includes both your father, mother, grandfather, grandmother, etc.,
nor abusing them, nor striking them!  You must not insult thy father
and mother in any manner, as this is an insult to the Commandments
set forth by the Lord, Thy God!)

6        “You shall not murder.  (This also includes Suicide and
Genocide!)

7        “You shall not commit adultery."  (This means the taking of
another man or woman, while legally married to someone else!)

8        “You shall not steal."

9        “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor."
(This includes untrue gossip that leads to the destruction of a
persons reputation!)

10        “You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not
covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female
servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your
neighbor's.”
