What is the 10th Commandment in the Bible? Is this Commandment still in effect today?

The Ten Commandments
When Moses brought down the Ten Commandments to Israel, they had already broken most of them by the time he came down the mountain, but these commandments were not from Moses but from God, written by God Himself in tablets of stone, which signifies their permanence. Moses did bring some laws and these were the Mosaic Laws but even these weren’t his ideas but from God, however the Mosaic La..

Does the Bible say we should pray to the dead? Is it okay or is it sin?

A short Christian study will help us to understand this dangerous doc..

What is the 9th Commandment? Is it still important today?

The Ten Commandments
When Moses came down off the mountain with the Ten Commandments, the Israelites had already broken most of them. He was angry with them and threw them down to the ground, smashing them in the process, just like they had broken them, but in truth, God’s Ten Commandments cannot be destroyed by breaking them but those who do can be destroyed by God. That logic would be like if we break the speed limit, it is, no longer ..
