Ten Commandments
Exodus 20: 3-17
1. Thou shalt not have no other god’s before me
Matthew 4:9-10 9 “All this I will give you,”
he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.”
10 Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’
2. Thou shalt not make onto thee any graven images 1 John 5:20-23
20. And we know that the Son of God
has come, and he has given us
understanding so that we can know the
true God. And now we live in fellowship
with the true God because we live in
fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ. He is
the only true God, and he is eternal life.
21. Dear children, keep away from
anything that might take God’s place in
your hearts.

4. Remember the Sabbath Day and keep it Holy
Hebrews 4:4-5 4 We know it is ready

Praise and worship God
5. Honor thy father and thy mother
Ephesians 6:1-3 1 Children, obey your parents
because you belong to the Lord, for this is the right thing to do.

Exodus 20:12
6. Thou shalt not kill
Genesis 4:8 8 One day Cain suggested
to his brother, “Let’s go out into the fields.”And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother, Abel, and killed him.
Exodus 20:13
7 thou shalt not commit adultery
Exodus 20:14John 8:7 They kept demanding an
answer, so he stood up again and said, “All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!”
Leviticus 20:10
8 Thou shalt not steal
Exodus 22:3-4• 3 But if it happens in daylight,
the one who killed the thief is guilty of murder.
• “A thief who is caught must pay in full for everything he stole. If he cannot pay, he must be sold as a slave to pay for his theft.
• 4 If someone steals an ox or a donkey or a sheep and it is found in the thief’s possession, then the thief must pay double the value of the stolen animal.
Exodus 20: 15
9 Thou shalt not bear false witness
Exodus 20:16
“You must not testify falsely against your neighbour.
Proverbs 6:18-19
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.
10 Thou shalt not covet
Exodus 20:17
17 “You must not covet your neighbor’s house. You must not covet your neighbor’s wife, male or female servant, ox or donkey, or anything else that belongs to your neighbor.”
Deuteronomy 5:20-21
Teaching about the Law
17 “Don’t misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose.
18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not even the smallest detail of God’s law will disappear until its purpose is achieved.
19 So if you ignore the least commandment and teach others to do the same, you will be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven. But anyone who obeys God’s laws and teaches them will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.
20 “But I warn you—unless your righteousness is better than the righteousness of the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees, you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven!
