    1. I am the Lord your God. You shall have no other gods before you.

    2. You shall not make any graven images and bow down and worship them.

    3. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.

    4. You shall remember the Sabbath and keep it holy.

    5. Honor your father and your mother

    6. Thou shalt not murder

    7. Thou shalt not steal

    8. Thou shalt not bear false witness.

    9. Thou shalt not commit adultery

    10. Thou shalt not covet.

    No, I didn't look it up. This is the answer to the question: Which is the greatest commandment? To Love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your mind, and all your soul. And the second is like it, to love your neighbor as yourself. All the law hangs on these two things. The Ten Commandments teach us how to love the Lord our God (1-4), and how to love our neighbor as ourselves (5-10).

    @Fred, Actually, that's precisely what he teaches in Phil 2:6-11. "Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage..." The phrase "nature of" comes from the Greek "morphe," meaning "form" or "outward appearance." He's saying Jesus didn't use the fact that He is equal with God to His advantage. It says He humbled Himself and became a servant and became obedient, even unto death on the cross.

    Jesus Himself said, Before Abraham was, I AM! Jesus said, I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning. Satan fell before Adam and Eve. That means Jesus was there before Adam and Eve.

    The main gist is "Leave them other gods out of it!!, it is about Me, Me, Me!!" The rest are fluff and filler.

    Please note that the first four were all about how best to please the jealous and bloodthirsty god they served, and the rest are common sense.

    All I can think without looking is that almost the first half are how to kiss God's aѕs, and THEN they get into stealing, murdering, and screwing around.

    Oh, and it doesn't mention rape.

    Don't do THIS!

    Don't do THAT!

    Actually, if one bothers to READ the entire Bible, there are over six hundred things which The Lord is credited with telling people not to do.
