Is it correct that as per Ten Commandments, every body is free to commit nine sins. If so, what happens .....?

That must be written in some code because I've never seen it.

Says who?\n\nI never saw that as one of the 10 Commandments.\n\n"Thou shalt not feel happiness, but rather the millstone of grief shall hang about thee neck until the Judgment Day cometh."

I personally can't see how this sort of commandment can be taken literally as it has no boundaries.\n\nUse whatever spiritual guidance you feel is appropriate as a guide only ... follow your heart - I don't believe in a heaven but if you do surely being true to yourself is the path rather than strict adherence to doctrine.\n\nAlso, and I know it is difficult, try not to hate -  it is a disease that spreads!\n\n\nPeace Out,

I get your point but why take away the 10 commandments? Those are things that hurt people and God wants us to love others. Those commandments were given so that we are educated on what hurts people if we do those things. Honestly the church and man really dont understand the concept of what Christ's love is. ya I like to go out on Sat nights too and I sleep in haha

yes, the 8 fold path is much more profound in my view as well.  all of the 10 commandments could be contained in just a few of the 8 guidelines.  right action and right view would probably cover those 10.  to me, there's something much more attractive about a suggestion than a command.

I am not exactly sure if the Bible says " you do or do not have freewill" specifically. But I believe that we do not have freewill, and the definition of freewill is "lack of internal compulsions". it talks in Romans nine how every intentional act is predestined to happen by God, and how even the evil doers, are used to accomplish his plan. this is why we "End up doing what God wants anyway." I believe that bad things happen for a reason as well and that they are Gods plan for our life. We may not be able to see the reason and we may never be able to, but that does not mean it was not his plan. And any suffering we endure is Gods will, and it may not seem fair or just to us, but Paul says in Romans who is the clay to question the potter, I fully agree with this, who are you and I to question the creator of the universe, and our heavenly father? I encourage you to read, "The Christian view of Man",  I cant remember the authors first name but his last name is Machen. Also Romans Chapter Nine, and parts of Hebrews.

Jesus wasn't re-writing the 10 Commandments...He was actually re-inforcing them...BUT He was summing them up into 2 commandments, meaning that we should observe them from our heart...The 2 Commandments are to Love God with all our heart, and to Love one another.\nIf everyone in the world actually did this, would we have the mess the world is in now?\n\nYour addition of: "Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.\n\nDoes this mean we can now covet our neighbor's stuff? \n\nHe also changed "keep Holy the Sabbath Day". Doesn't that mean that it is perfectly fine to work on Sundays?"\n \nYour additional question prompts me to include these commandments into the 2 Commandments that Christ summed all the commandments into......\nIf we love our neighbor, we wouldn't covet our neighbor's stuff...so that fits into Jesus's 2nd commandment, to Love our neighbor as ourself.\nWorking on the Sabbath was not done away with; that Commandment falls into the 1st Commandment re-inforced by Christ, and that is to "Love God"...\nHope this clarify's your understanding of how the Commandments are still in effect, but since Christ came,  we observe them with our whole Heart.

as far as i'm concerned, i cannot see how its breaking any of the 10 commandments.  \n\nas soon as you do it instead of going to church, i suppose you could be worshiping a false idol in some peoples eyes.  but they're dorks.  \n\nits also considered a sin to walk around naked to some people.  \n\ndidnt god make us in his image?  why are we ashamed of what god gave us?  seriously!  it doesnt make any sense.  Christians are always going back on what they say.  its just dumb.

any one of the 7 deadly sins, or to disobey any one of the 10 Commandments. And then there is the sin that can't be forgiven, the sin of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit ( which happens after probably a life time of indifference to God). Also, participation in the black arts would be a sin.

we all sin. no one is pure free and sinless. as long as you ask for forgiveness for your sins you will go to heaven. that is why a person should pray every day. i was taught to believe Jesus died for our sins. by accepting Him as your personal savior you will go to heaven.  different people have different ways of believing and that is okay.

Matthew 5:27-30:\n"You have heard that it was said, `Do not commit adultery.'  But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.  If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.  And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.\n\nProverbs 6:25-26:\nDo not lust in your heart after her beauty or let her captivate you with her eyes, for the prostitute reduces you to a loaf of bread, and the adulteress preys upon your very life.\n\nColossians 3:5-6:\nPut to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry.  Because of these, the wrath of God is coming.\n\n1 Thessalonians 4:3-8:\nIt is God's will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality;  that each of you should learn to control his own body in a way that is holy and honorable,  not in passionate lust like the heathen, who do not know God;  and that in this matter no one should wrong his brother or take advantage of him. The Lord will punish men for all such sins, as we have already told you and warned you.  For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life.  Therefore, he who rejects this instruction does not reject man but God, who gives you his Holy Spirit.

matt 5:27-28\n\n "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery.' But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart."

Well.... I have a problem with 1, for starters.  I don't think the 10 commandments of the bible are that hard to improve on.  Let me find a thread for you.

Any time you violate the command to LOVE, you sin!\n\nThe definition of love is summed up in the 10 commandments!\n\nIt does not matter whether you profess a religion or not, everyone expects to be treated according to the ten commandments!\n\nIf you disagree, tell me which of the commandments is irrelevant to you as far as others interactions with you are concerned!

It very much depends on the type of the christian religion. If we are talking about Catholic religion, than we have the Seven Great Sins.\nProtestant religions however state, that all sins are equal in the eyes of God. \nSo, it depends..........

The Ten Commandments were 10 laws written on stone by God personally and given to Moses. These laws concerned man's relationship with God and also with each other.\n\nPerhaps you are referring to the New Testament passage Mark 12:13-17 13 Paying Taxes to Caesar \n\nThey sent some Pharisees and followers of Herod to bait him, hoping to catch him saying something incriminating. 14 They came up and said, "Teacher, we know you have integrity, that you are indifferent to public opinion, don't pander to your students, and teach the way of God accurately. Tell us: Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not?" \n\n15 He knew it was a trick question, and said, "Why are you playing these games with me? Bring me a coin and let me look at it." 16 They handed him one.\n\n"This engraving — who does it look like? And whose name is on it?"\n\n"Caesar," they said. \n\n17 Jesus said, "Give Caesar what is his, and give God what is his."\n\nThis passage indicates that it is correct to pay taxes if you are a citizen of a country (or state) and the governemt levies taxes of all people.
