Lord Father GOD,
I have no other gods before me. For I Love you.
I do not make for myself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. I do not bow down to them or worship them. For I Love you.
I do not misuse the name of the Lord my GOD. For I Love you.
I remember the Sabbath day by keeping it Holy. Six days I do labor and do all my work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord my GOD. On it I do not do any work, neither I, nor my son or daughter, nor my manservant or maidservant, nor my animals, nor the alien within my gates. For I Love you.
I honor my father and my mother. For I Love you.
I do not murder. For I Love you.
I do not commit adultery. For I Love you.
I do not steal. For I Love you.
I do not give false testimony against my neighbor. For I Love you.
I do not covet my neighbor's house. I do not covet my neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to my neighbor. For I Love you.
The Lord my GOD, the Lord is One.
I Love the Lord my GOD with all my heart and with all my soul and with all my strength.
For all of His Law is written upon my heart. I Live by His law with Love. And if I do stumble, He is there with Open Arms of Grace to hold me up lest I trip, that I will not fall. But woe to anyone whom calls the Child of GOD a hypocrite if he stumbles. For they will be held to the same requirements (GOD's Law) and will reap judgment upon themselves for their acknowledgment of them. For it is better to be a hypocrite redeemed by Grace, than to be a sinner doomed to death. Those who call upon the name of the Lord are redeemed even if they do not keep the requirements of the whole Law of GOD. But those whom do not believe in the name of the Lord are doomed to death even if they keep all of the requirements of GOD's Law. What good is keeping the Law if you do not believe in the Law Giver? The Law was not given by Moses nor by Angels (mediators) but it was given by GOD. For Moses and the Mediating Angels of GOD are Servants of GOD used by Him to deliver His Message to His People. We are called to Live by the Law of GOD (all of it, not just the Ten Commandments), keeping all of its requirements, though we are expected to stumble from time to time. And this is the reason for Grace, to redeem us when we do stumble. GOD gave us His Law so that we would know Him and where He stands on everything. GOD did not give us the Law to achieve Salvation (not even in the time of Moses, though some teach that it was). If GOD gave the Law to Moses and the Israelites to achieve Salvation then, why did He hate Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and all their descendants whom came before Moses was given the Law? Some may ask, 'Did not Jesus do away with the Law?' And the answer to that question is no! In fact, Jesus increased the Law! The Law shall stand as GOD's Holy Word Forever and Eternity! Some teachers of GOD's Word contradict this Truth confusing many with their teaching saying, 'We are not required to live by nor keep the law, for we live under grace.' They confuse the understanding of GOD's Word for many, for they are confused themselves. The entire New Testament is encoded in the Old Testament, for they are One as GOD (the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit) are One. For GOD is not confused, His Testament is One. GOD the Father did not make a mistake and then send His Son (Jesus) to fix it. For Jesus said it Himself that, 'The Father is greater than I.' But Jesus (the Son of GOD) was sent to complete His (GOD's) Message and confirm the Covenant. There are more examples (instances) of GOD's Abounding Grace written in the Old Testament than the New. So who are the liars whom say & teach that GOD was not graceful before the Cross? That is Blasphemy! GOD has always given His People a way to atone for their sin and be redeemed by His Grace. Though many do not understand this but the Cross was to make this redemption everlasting for all without anymore sacrifice. Did not GOD's Old Testament Servant King David say, 'GOD desires mercy, not sacrifice!'? GOD sent His Only Begotten Son (Christ Jesus) to show us what this means. Not only for the Jew but also for the gentile. For the gentile nations were even more sacrificial than the Jews. The Jews sacrificed animals according to the instructions of GOD. But the gentiles sacrificed the flesh and blood of mankind according to the instructions of satan. For the cross came before Salvation, and Calvary was there before the Christ. The cross and other instruments like it were used for human sacrifice for ages before it was used to sacrifice the Holy Lamb of GOD (Christ Jesus). For the Sacrifice of GOD's One & Only Begotten Son has brought Salvation for the nations for ages to come. The Word of GOD for the People of GOD, in Jesus Name, Amen!
