10 Commandments recorded in the Bible: how much you follow them in real life? Do u really love ur neighbor?

Question

The Ten Commandments - (moral imperatives)

Love your neighbor means love everyone around you. Do you love everyone around you.

Irrespective of creed, color, class (rich or poor),

Can you love someone bad

Are you really loving your parents, teachers, friends, colleagues,

Are you good to everyone around you? Do you help people around you?

If you follow the above, you are already following The Ten Commandments.

My question too is, are you a true christian following the The Ten Commandments sincerely. If you are following, what is that which is making people not to follow them as they are so good.

Answer 1

De@r genTLe m@n,

I really love people. I really love to interact with people. I am very friendly and i really get very free with people in the first meeting itself.

I really dont care whether the person is poor or rich. I judge the person by his character and nature and not by wealth. Because i am a person who believes that wealth can go away one day but ones nature never goes off. One who is good at heart always remain so.

Its really very difficult for me to love the bad ones. But nowadays i have started loving them because i have learnt that how much bad a person is, he have a good soul hidden inside. And that can be brought out by using the love weapon only.

Yes, as much as possible i try to be good with everyone around me, no matter how they are. Yes, i am really a very helpful girl. I have the " HELPING NATURE" a lot in me. So i usually help people with their problems. That's why my class mates call me PREM BHAI [ and this really adds a lot to my tomboy character again....]....lolzzzz.......

I dont know that whether i am following the above commandments properly or not but i try to follow them in every manner possible....tc...sweet dreamz...bye...

Answer 2

Gentleman it is not so much that I love them but I give them the respect I would hope to receive from them.Futhermore I am not going to love my enemies but I am going to try to change their attitudes.See it is better to change them then have them see you as a weak fool and walk over you.Also I do not covet what they have but be happy that they have reached the heights that they have.If I was the owner of the things they want I would share with them or try to teach them how to get to where I am.I am going to show them that jealousy,greed,vanity,blind hatred,and disregard for the rights of others is negative.I would put that all together and try to show them that being negative always leads to mistrust and wars and stealing and general chaos within the human condition.I would make it my mission to show everyone that pulling together regardless of race,creed,ethnicity,and/or religion is more counterproductive than useful to the human condition.Unless we can instill in a species of mammals such as humans with the brain to reason that the world is getting smaller constantly and the wave of the future is a Global Economy we are lost in chaos in a forever revolving door.Yes Gentleman take the Ten Commandments and restate them in a way that people today can understand and make sense of them the future is a hopeless cause.It will only be a matter of time before the jealousy and hatred blows us all up.That a world power is not based on how many nuclear weapons I have more than your country.Peace must prevail and understanding rather than build-up of military might.With that all I can envision is skulls and crossbones.Your Pal larry m

Answer 3

All that i can say is that I am doing my best in folllowing them! I dont know if i am fully or partly following it but I am sure I am not perfect as no human is and can be. I am trying to be perfect by progessing spiritually. I know i have you help and guidance. people going after the metrial happiness in this world is stopping them. they must stop goind after their wants and instead go after their needs!! that is what they should do and what they are not doing! they dont have enough time would be an excuse. it is because they are occupied with worldly things they are not having time. instead of going to a movie or going to party with friends every day or very often they can take time praying. even thinking about God once a day for atleast a secon would be great but people dont want to. they ignore God, they feel they are the powers and that they dont need any help from God but they do. It is only due to God's love and mercy we are still alive! he is almighty.. he can demolish eveything in a snap by just clicking his fingers. if the sea calm when jesus demands, if the storm settles when jsus say, we should realise how powerful he is! instead we think that we are the almight ones and no on can eliminate us. that should be changed ang then they will start loving and treating all equally and lead a good life!

Answer 4

Gentleman,
I'm not a Christian, even then I tried to follow THIS commandment last year. But after noticing that the brother of my 'neighbor' is a state level Boxer, I had to beat a hasty but safe (though NOT successful) retreat. Not TOO much of damage was caused to my teeth.
Perhaps it was intended by the divine 'Commander' that only Christians may follow any of these Commandments.

Answer 5

First, a true Christian realizes the 10 commandments with all the rest of the law of Moses was nailed to the cross when Jesus was crucified. Col 2:13 You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins. 14 He canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross. 15 In this way, he disarmed the spiritual rulers and authorities. He shamed them publicly by his victory over them on the cross.

We are to be imitators of such people as the Apostle Paul in the way he followed Jesus. Phil 3:17 Dear brothers and sisters, pattern your lives after mine, and learn from those who follow our example.

YES, I DO LOVE MY NEIGHBOR, but I do NOT follow the Old Testament Law of Moses that is gone. The worship of a day, Saturday, is gone. I worship God's grace through Jesus the Christ.

Answer 6

The ten commandments are not moral imperatives as you claim. A moral law is one where there is never a justification for breaking it. This does not hold true for the sabbath command, for instance. There are plenty of examples where it is set aside for human need.

The ten commandments do not address love for fellow man. The two Great Commandments do.

They are also the core of the old covenant, and Christians are not a party to that covenant. And in any event, that covenant ended. Christians are described as being dead to the law, and dead to sin.

If one is obeying the two Great Commandments, the ten, as well as all the law, is fulfilled.

Answer 7

Oh, I'm so glad you asked.
I've been reading, lately, in Romans (in the Bible,you know).
Paul who wrote about half the New Testament (or, New Covenant, also from the Bible) talks about what a miserable sinner he is although he is a saint (note: "saint" is not capitalized).
The Law, Ten Commandments included, showed us what sinners we were.
Christ's grace gives us access to heaven not by works (because The Law proved this is impossible) but by Faith alone.

Do I really love my neighbor? By God's grace, power and strength more often than not.
Thank God!

Answer 8

I think love your neighbor as yourself is not from the 10 commandments but Jesus second law.
And as for the 10 commandments, we who have been born of the sprite are no loner under the law but under grace. In fact if you try to live under the law (10 commandments) you fall from grace. LOOK IT UP Please..Book of acts ch ch 8 verse 10 and ch15
book of Hebrews ch 8 verse 13
Ps listen to the gorilla guy-

Answer 9

Am not a christian. but all those points u have described hear is there in all religions. and how much i can i am following them.
I dont think religion as a matter for not behaving well. As a matter of fact all of us ar humanbeings first and then related to any other religion. And humanity doest teaches to hate any human.
Honestly i say i never like bad persons or who dont thing good for u how could u think good for them. if u r like that then one will be the god or next to god.

Answer 10

People that don't know God don't know love because God is love. You are correct about those two commandments, the reason some don't recieve our love is because they can't recognise love because they don't know God. But what is immpossible for man is possible for God, He said My word will never come back to Me void. So what we have to do is lead them to the living word of God, which is the reason I try to quote scripture as much as I can. Jesus said if I be lifted up I will draw all man unto Myself. Peace!!!
