How many of you Christians actually follow the ten commandments?

Question

Or do you pick out ones that are convientent for you or don't get in the way of your comfortable lifestlye?

If you feel as if some of these don't apply anymore then please give me the bible verses that say that they no longer needed.

5 thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: Ex. 34.17 · Lev. 19.4 ; 26.1 · Deut. 4.15-18 ; 27.15 for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

6 and showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. Ex. 34.6, 7 · Num. 14.18 · Deut. 7.9, 10

11 for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. Gen. 2.1-3 · Ex. 31.17

12 ¶ Honor thy father and thy mother: Deut. 27.16 · Mt. 15.4 ; 19.19 · Mk. 7.10 ; 10.19 · Lk. 18.20 · Eph. 6.2 that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. Eph. 6.3

Answer 1

All are from God - even that 4th one that people try to change.

God says to write them on your heart and in your mind. I've done my best to do this. He also says He will write them in my heart and in my mind. So where my diligent efforts have fallen short He completes the job.

Answer 2

LOL! good question! No, i'm no longer consistently questioning relating to the ten commandments. somewhat, and that i ought to get boohissed for this, that's no longer lots distinctive for Christian than that's for an Athiest (or the different faith). I somewhat have this element referred to as a ethical compass. It classes me on what's stunning and incorrect, no longer in straight forward terms on the inspiration of religious ideals. Stealing is incorrect, i do no longer might desire to be Christian to appreciate that, comparable with lots of the different Commandments. Even honoring your mothers and dads, that's especially basic for the time of cultures (and Religions) to be raised to coach elders know. i might say the only commandment that demands some concious deliberation is that of no longer worshiping fake idols. something is rather in straight forward terms a ethical instruction manual no longer lots distinctive than that of many cultures/societies.
