QUESTION TWENTY!!
For Christ's sake, man. Have you actually read these?!?
1. Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
OKAY!
2. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image.
FAIR ENOUGH!
3. Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
OF COURSE, FATHER!
4. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
THAT'S PRETTY EASY WITH NO JOB!
5. Honour thy father and thy mother.
GOT THAT RIGHT!
6. Thou shalt not kill.
I CALL THE POLICE!
7. Thou shalt not commit adultery.
SHE'S A SKANK, ANYWAY!
8. Thou shalt not steal.
SOUNDS GOOD!
9. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
I'D NEVER LIE ON TOM!
10. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ***, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
I DON'T WANT TOM'S STUFF. IT LOOKS NOCE< BUT I HAVE MY OWN!!!
What?

He said looked with Lustful Intent. INTENT. That means that you WANTED TO do something sinful with her. I check chicks out all the time. But you know what? At the end of the day I go home, they go home and we both go to sleep in our respective beds. According to your interpretation, I'm committing a sin when I go look for a wife. To hear you tell it I'm committing a sin just by thinking about sex. You're wrong.
Jesus said that WANTING to have sinful relations is the same as ACTUALLY HAVING sinful relations. Your self defeatist perspective on Christianity has contaminated your entire philosophy. Don't feel bad, though. You're not alone.

Oh, Shut Up. You're just mad because I saw that before you. You must be one of those sheep that only repeats what they're told to.

Well because alot of people don't read the bible or people just like to be free and have there own choice and not have some mythology telling them what they can and cannot not do.

The reason that I know it is not possible is the words of Jesus:
Matthew 5:20-22 (The Message)
19-20"Trivialize even the smallest item in God's Law and you will only have trivialized yourself. But take it seriously, show the way for others, and you will find honor in the kingdom. Unless you do far better than the Pharisees in the matters of right living, you won't know the first thing about entering the kingdom.
Murder
21-22"You're familiar with the command to the ancients, 'Do not murder.' I'm telling you that anyone who is so much as angry with a brother or sister is guilty of murder.

But have you read how Jesus taught that these commandments were not merely an outward commandment but went to the very thoughts and feelings a person has?
"You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.' But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, 'You fool!' will be liable to the hell of fire. Matthew 5:21-22
"You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery.' But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart. Matthew 5:27-28
Are you saying that you have never looked with lust at a woman to whom you were not married?

Storing up wrath, huh? God will not be mocked! Your insight and your use of God's name and Holy Scripture are distasteful and disgusting! I realize this is what you are looking for, a little attention! Well, here ya go!

If you become Gods son throw His only begotten Son Jesus and have attached your faith to that of Christs, then the keeping of Gods commandments becomes second nature to you and you can not break them because you would rather die then do that.

there's a difference between upholding and actually living them perfectly. but if you're without sin, by all means cast the first stone..
