Ten Commandments: a Refresher

#1: You shall have no other Gods but the Lord.

#2: You shall not make for yourself any idol of any sort.

#3: You shall not take the name of the Lord in vein.

#7: You shall not commit adultery.

#8: You shall not steal.

These commandments form the backbone of God's Law, given to Israel through Moses.  Jesus commands us to live this Law too.  We have been given the Holy Spirit that we could fulfill the righteous requirements of the Law.  Therefore, we are still called to praise God by living lives that honor His goodness and His grace.  Let us then take heed to follow these commandments with joy and with love!
