The Ten Commandments

1. NO FALSE GODS: Exodus 20:2-3 [2] I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. [3] You shall have no other gods before me.

2. NO IDOLS: Exodus 20:4 You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.

3. DON’T MISUSE THE LORD’S NAME: Exodus 20:7 You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.

4. KEEP THE SABBATH: Exodus 20:8 Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.

5. HONOR PARENTS: Exodus 20:12 Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you.

6. NO MURDER: Exodus 20:13 You shall not murder.

7. NO ADULTERY: Exodus 20:14
You shall not commit adultery.

8. NO THE FT: Exodus 20:15You shall not steal.

9. NO PERJURY: Exodus 20:16 You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.

10. DON’T COVET : Exodus 20:17 You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.

NOTE: Mark 12:28-32:“One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, “Of all the commandments, which is the most important?”

“The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: `Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

The second is this: `Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.” “Well said, teacher,” the man replied. “You are right in saying that God is one and there is no other but him.”
