Third Commandment

	<em>You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name</em>		<em>You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name</em>

			The Third Commandment is a companion to the Ninth Commandment. People are forbidden to spread lies about God.

			=== False teaching and false gods ===

			Lying about God nature will lead men to worship false gods.

			* God is this golden calf, it brought you out of Egypt
			* God is sovereign, therefore he causes everything, including the Holocaust
			* God is love, therefore he forgives your sins

			All these are lies and they will separate men from God. This leads to the eternal destruction of their souls in hell.

			=== Sanctifying evil ===

			When testifying about God, people putting God's name on things and actions. This in effect sanctifies or curses these things, because God is the standard for all things good, and God must love the Good and hate evil.

			When people testify <em>God loves X</em>, they are saying <em>X is good</em>. <em>God hates Y</em> means <em>Y is evil</em>. This is what regular people understand when hearing these statements.

			When people say

			* God loves gays
			* God loves murderers
			* God loves adulterers

			they are in effect saying that homosexuality, murder and adultery are ''good things''. This is sanctifying evil, calling evil good, which is a lie. This will lead people to pursue sin and wickedness.

			=== Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit ===

			Christianity has a concept commonly known as ''the unforgivable sin'' which is equated as '''Blaspheming the Holy Spirit'''.

			This is actually a false, because from the Holiness of God follows that no sin is ever forgiven, but God punishes people for every sin they make.

			What '''Blaspheming the Holy Spirit''' actually means is when people <em>reject truth</em>, because an alternate name for the Holy Spirit is the ''Spirit of Truth''.

			[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20John%202%3A23&version=NIV 1 John 2:23]: No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

			Yahweh, or God the Father, sends Jesus, those who reject him reject the Father also.

			Yahweh and Jesus send the Holy Spirit, those who reject him reject the Father and Son also.

			Rejecting truth means that people reject the Holy Spirit, they reject the authority and Lordship of God.

			They stay in their lies and sins, and cannot repent, which means turn away from evil.

			Hell is a place where there is no truth.

Second Commandment

	<em>You shall have no other gods before me</em>		<em>You shall have no other gods before me</em>

			The Second Commandment clarifies the First, it demands full obedience to Yahweh alone.

			=== Logic ===

			On a pure logical level, once you establish that Yahweh is the Lord, the highest authority who gives commands and must be obeyed, at first there are two possibilies.

			* Yahweh '''alone''' is the Lord
			* Yahweh and many other Gods are equally Lords who must be obeyed

			The problem with option 2 arises when there are conflicting commands:

			* Yahweh says ''You shall not murder'', Baal says ''Offer your children as sacrifice''
			* Yahweh says ''You shall not murder'', your boyfriend says ''I'm not going to take care of this baby, abort it''

			Therefore, you can only have one Lord, and must disobey other authorities when they conflict with Yahweh

			=== False religions ===

			Once it is established that God exists, the second question is which one is the one true God among all religions. Among Abrahamic religions one must choose:

			* Judaism: Jesus was crucified and not raised from the dead
			* Christianity: '''Jesus was crucified and God raised him from the dead'''
			* Islam: Jesus was not crucified

			In the end, man must choose what he believes and where his loyalty lies, and discard other options.

			=== God of Human Relationships ===

			Human relationships is the true God of most mankind, including those claiming to be Christians.

			When your friends or relatives sin against other people, you have two choices:

			* Condemn your friends or relatives
			* Be a criminal accomplice to your friends or relatives

			If you condemn your friends or relatives, you uphold the Lordship of God, justice and the equal worth of all mankind.

			If you choose to protect your friends or relatives, you are

			* Joining their rebellion and fall under the same judgment as they are
			* You deny justice and the equal worth of all mankind
			* By doing so, you also deny your own worth as a human being
			* You plunge into the world of tribalism and lust for power because '''justice is already dead'''

First Commandment

Line 8:		Line 8:

	<em>I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery</em>		<em>I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery</em>

			The First Commandment sets the foundation for the relationship between God and man.

			=== Theology ===

			God is Holy. This means, that God is always true to His own nature. God was Holy before Creation, and there was perfect harmony between the members of the Holy Trinity. Holiness is therefore a necessary attribute to the character of God. After God created beings other than himself, who were endowed with free will, became the possibility of rebellion and sin.

			After sin, God must be Holy and true to His own nature. He cannot deny his own nature, which is the standard of Good. If God were to forgive, meaning, ''not punish sin'', He would accept rebellion against Himself. Therefore, God must punish every sin.

			=== Lordship ===

			Lordship means that the person in question is the highest legal authority, who can give laws and punish criminals, up to capital punishment.

			This concept is clear to all historians, secular Kings and Emperors have had this power in their own nations.

			God is the Lord, which means He is the highest legal authority. The world belongs to God, not man. Man shall not worship himself, he shall worship God and live under God's terms. Man must accept, that God has the right to punish him for his sins, and that He will do so.

			=== Penal Substitutionary Atonement ===

			All of those, who believe in Penal Substitutionary Atonement, deny the First Commandment. They deny, that God is their Lord, and that God will punish them for their own sins. They, in their own insanity, believe, that God

			* Does not punish the guilty
			* Do punish the innocent
			* These two evils combined is the Gospel, or ''Good News''

			The remedy to this insanity is to undertand, that the Lordship of Jesus means that

			<em>Jesus punishes you for your own sins</em>
