The Ten Commandments Case

The Ten Commandments are not only being taking out of our court houses, but out of our hearts. Let us take a stand to defend to keep them in where God has put them.

I'm with Thomas Jefferson on this one: "Christianity neither is, nor ever was, a part of the common law". Obviously we need rule of law in order for society to function, but that doesn't mean that rule of law is somehow dependent on the ten commandments.

As for the sabbath, we need firefighters to put out fires, doctors to treat injuries, police to protect property, etc. on the sabbath as much as any other day. Good thing we have no laws in America based on the 10 Commandments, huh?

Phillipians 4:13 does not mean you can DO anything. It means you can endure all things thought Christs strength. Look at the context of Paul's writing. This proof text is taken out of context to what and who he was writing too. He was talking about enduring suffering and having plenty just before this. It means any human can go through suffering and good times because it is CHRIST who gives the strength to do this. I do not however disagree with Christ living in us causing the following of God.

@supermutloc64 - How I would react if someone lied or cheated on me would be one of disappointment, and suspension of trust in that person. Same if someone stole from me, except I'd call the cops, too. I wouldn't care much if someone coveted items belonging to me. Seems most would like that, but I have little or no desire to have shiny, expensive things coveted by others.

@supermurloc64 - Thanks for asking. Sorry for the delay. I'll start by asking you in turn to consider the first 4 as well. I worship no god(s), so I don't worship any other god(s), nor idols. No one knows the Bible god's name. Considered too holy to speak aloud, the name was lost 3000+ years ago. YHWH is as close as we can get, but no one knows the proper pronunciation, so it's virtually impossible to use it vain. (God, Lord, All mighty, etc. are descriptions or titles not names) As for the sab

Why do xtians insist that the US was based on the bible? Or that at some point it was godly? This country was started by the merchants. It was an economic Product! The courts don't care about justice. They never did. It is a system based on MONEY. People hate and kill here for money... And I am just talking about corporations and pharmaceuticals. Wake up! It is one of the beasts of Revelation!

@CCnTaylor they probably are just religious laws but consider them for a moment. the first 4 commandments are for the relationship with God like don't worship other gods, no idolatry, and not using God's name as a curse word and sabbath the day of rest after nearly a whole week of work. Now there are the other 6 commandments the relashionship with people. I'd like to ask you howd you react if some one lied to you, cheated on you, stolen from you, or if some one coveted an item belonging to you?

Every time you see the word 'commandment' in the bible it is not automatically referring to the 10 commandments.

The entire bible is FOR us, but not TO us.

The editing in this video is very good.

This is indeed an age of great deception, take Indiana for example, their State Capitol displayed a Ten Commandment monument that had the 2nd commandment removed, and it also had a graven image of the sun goddess of the Egyptians inscribed on the monument, all to convince the public that the State was supporting the JudeoChristian law, when secretly inside the Capitol they placed the image of their pagan fertility goddess, and declared her to be the State. Now you understand the deception of it

@stephenabm - the 10 commandments had absolutely nothing to do with America's Constitution, or our laws. They are religious laws for those of that religion. If you chose to abide by them, fine. Just don't try to impose them on me. That includes government property, too. Keep religion and government separate!
