Well, they are Commandments, not suggestions
And
They are God's
edit: jesus didn't break the Sabbath. even Jews feed their animals on that day. Jesus didn't do anything wrong. He kept it holy. What's more holy than a miracle?

...Sabbath, in its origin, is NOT about worship. That, along with synagogues, came about as a result of the Babylonian captivity. The adventists false doctrine is baseless. They present a claim that the early church met on Saturday, and that the practice was changed in the time of Constantine, yet Christian writers several centuries before the time of Constantine refer to Christians assembling on SUNDAY. - See Tertullian (c. 200 A.D.) and Justin Martyr (156 A.D.) Both of these writers make it clear that the early church continued to meet on Sunday.
Because the law was done away with!
Ephesians 2:15 Through his body on the cross, Christ put an end to the law with all its commands and rules. He wanted to create one new group of people out of the two. He wanted to make peace between them.
Colossians 2:14 He wiped out the written Law with its rules. The Law was against us. It opposed us. He took it away and nailed it to the cross.
Galatians 2:16 ...No one can be made right with God by obeying the law.
Galatians 2:21 ...What if a person could become right with God by obeying the law? Then Christ died for nothing!
Galatians 5:4 Some of you are trying to be made right with God by obeying the law. You have been separated from Christ. You have fallen away from God’s grace... The ONLY verse that talks about falling from grace, and they did it by trying to follow the law!
Jesus said he didn’t come to destroy the law, but to fulfill it. (Matt 5:17) The effect was the same. Once fulfilled it was no longer in effect. The very next verse, Matthew 5:18, looks forward to the time when the law would be set aside. "...Not even the smallest stroke of a pen will disappear from the Law UNTIL EVERYTHING IS COMPLETED."
On the cross, Jesus' last recorded saying, "It is finished," is an important milestone. Because of Jesus life, Satan had been defeated. The law was finished and would no longer stand between God and mankind.
The 10 commandments along with the rest of the law ("commands and rules" from Ephesians 2:15) were "set aside" when they were fulfilled or completed at Jesus' resurrection. We are no longer bound by that law.

The Ten Commandments are given to us so that we would see how sinful we are and run to Jesus for forgiveness as a result. (The Law shows us our sin; the Gospel shows us our Savior.) When you read them, you realize that there is no way that anyone can possibly keep them perfectly. Jesus says that if we hate our brother, we are a murderer. Bummer. I've never taken someone's life, but I haven't always loved others as Jesus has loved me. Jesus also says that if we lust after someone, we have committed adultery. Failed again. You see, you have to keep the Law even in your thoughts. "No one does good, no not one."--Isaiah Therefore without the Gospel (Good News) that all those sins are forgiven and paid for by Jesus sacrificial death on the Cross, we are lost and without hope of getting to heaven. Jesus took our death that we deserve and gave us His righteousness instead. Yay! What a great trade! No one but God can love like that.

I only care about the Constitution, and the laws of my country. Any commandment that is in accordance with some of the laws (like not killing), I'll observe it, but ONLY because it's in the law, and in my conscience. Not because it's in the bible. And as for some of the others, that forbid things that laws don't forbid, I really enjoy violating them.

Some do. Some don't. So what?
Worship isn't what happens when we are in church, it is what happens when we leave.
Love the Lord your God with all your heart soul mind and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself.
a.k.a. the greatest commandment

It says keep the sabbath day holy, for us in america, and modern days that is Sunday.
I think God's commandments are rightfully put, they are a good standard for us to look to.

Hi there.
If we could keep the law then Jesus didn't have to be crucified. Jesus broke the sabbath law many times. Is he part of the anti Christ plan too?
May GOD richly bless you and open your eyes.

The Ten Commandants are perfect instructions if ONLY mankind would respect and adhere to them. Pops

If Jesus was alive today he would roast meat on the Sabbath and drink ice-cold beer and after that he would probably watch some Discovery Channel on his Plasma with 6.1 Dolby Surround and then he’d most likely have wild sex with his gf. (and then he would preach the kingdom of his father).
That’s the real Jesus, not the fairy-tale you got from the Jews/Romans.

Some do the others say that they are no longer required to live
under the Law which they say is replaced with the new covenant.
