The 10 Commandments Series: Relationships

Read: Exodus 20:12-15
  
Even though we don't know the 10 commandments, commandments which are thought to us by our parents or elders when we are small.

The first one is 'Honor your mother and your father' which must be kept even if not thought to us. Ephesians 6:1 says that honouring your mother and your father is the first commandment with promise. Once children get older they do not care about their parents and leave their old parents in old-age homes, but in Proverbs 23:22 it clearly says that we should not despise our parents.

Killing is not only against the law of the world but also against the law of heaven. The authority of our death is only in the hands of God. Above all, if anybody (A religious person) who kills someone who is innocent (Who does not know Christ) is a Sinner. As discussed before. It is in the commandment because God cares about both of them the killer and the one being killed. To prove it read Matthew 26:52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all, they that take the sword shall perish with the sword. Jesus does not only care about Peter but he also cares about the soldiers who are going to arrest him. (What would you do if you were Peter would you obey or disobey).

Committing adultery is a great sin. Adultery leads to Divorce is against even in the New Testament. Matthew 5:27-32 and Matthew 19:1-10 these verses are all about adultery. There is a question arising in Matthew 19:7 They said to Him, “Why then did Moses command to give a certificate of divorce and to put her away?”. The answer to this question answered by Jesus is because of the hardness of the people hearts for no love for their wives, but it was not allowed from the beginning. 

Now we go to our next commandment and it is "Do not steal". It does not only mean stealing one's property or money but means stealing a lot of o-things which can also be seen from the 5th commandment stealing respect if broken, 6th stealing life if broken or 7th stealing one’s spouse. Stealing does not only mean hurting financially but also means mentally. Stealing includes stealing of life (Killing), the person (Kidnapping), spouse (Adultery), material property (Theft), intellectual property (Copying in exams), dignity (Humiliation), and trust.  
    
These commandments are to be followed by each and every believer of Jesus, as they lead us to a good and blessed life. AMEN.

Last Saying Of Christ: 7th Saying

Last Saying Of Christ: 7th Saying Read: Luke 23:46        Jesus's seventh word on the cross was  (Luke 23:46 ) And when Jesus had cried out with a loud voice, he said: "Father into your hands I commit my spirit .”   Here, Jesus is willingly giving up His soul into the Father’s hands, indicating that He was about to die – and that God had accepted His sacrifice. He “offered up Himself unblemished to God” ( Hebrews 9:14 ).   w hen we see Je sus die, we see two things: the  price paid  to bring us to glory; and the  example given  for how we are to get there. So let's learn from Jesus how to die, by focusing on  Luke 23:44–46 .  These were the final word said by our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. We have many lessons to learn from this; the first one is that "Death is a way to eternal life" this means that though he is going to the grave he will reign all eternity likewise when we die our bodies may go to the grave but o...

Gods Plan Is Much Greater Than Our Plans

Gods Plan Is Much Greater Than Our Plans Read: Isaiah 55:3       God has greater plans for us which are beyond our imagination. Isaiah 55:3 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord.", says that God's thoughts and ways are not the same as our thoughts and ways but His thoughts are much bigger than ours as He knows and holds our future in His hands. If we allow God's will to be done in our life we will prosper. But if we deny it and go with our plans some or the other way God will bring us back to His plan again and from that moment, there is no turning back. In 2 Samuel 7, God made a covenant with David. But, David was feeling bad because the Ark Of The Covenant was in a tent and he was in a palace. So he had decided to build a temple of God to keep Ark in it. But God wanted David's son Solomon to build the temple. Do you know why God had rejected David to build the temple?  God had rejected ...

Who Is The Greatest?

Who Is The Greatest? Read: Matthew 18:1-5    Before the disciples had asked Jesus the question, Jesus had taken Peter, James, and John up on a high mountain and they had met Moses and Elijah there. after when they came down and continued the discussion about who is the greatest among themselves, Peter, James and John boasted about themselves as they got a chance to meet Moses and Elijah on a mountain.  People who are famous boast about themselves. For example, there is 2 employee in the office Jake and Aaron so Jake gets promoted to head of the department and he gets double the salary, so eventually, he will start boasting in front of Aaron. Here Jake is committing a sin by boasting and Aaron commits a sin by coveting. Proverbs 27:1 “ Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring ” .  According to Jesus, to be the greatest we must be like gentle, humble and not knowing what i...
