Holy Roller.

I don’t like the fact that it says no divine intervention necessary. Its precisely because of divine intervention that I got the holy roller thing to begin with LOL. Just clueless ain’t they?

How the Decalogue is counted is dependent upon if you are a Jew, a Catholic or a Protestant.

It's Hebrew so #1 is at the upper right; and the commandments are abbreviated for artistic purposes. For example the Hebrew for #4 about the sabbath just says "Remember." (The second word has no English translation.)

I'm a Presbyterian PCA member

The commandments all go all the way into the heart and mind. Jesus said if you looked with lust at a woman, you have committed adultery. If you have thought murderous thoughts, you have committed murder and so forth.

The purpose of the commandments then is to show bad sin is and how far we fall from Holiness. The Apostle Paul says that the Law is a Taskmaster to drive us to Christ.

And that is exactly what the 10 Commandments do.

Thus the little questionnaire afterwords was extremely superficial "I haven't killed anyone", whereas the proper use of the commandments convicts somewhere every time and drives us in confession, repentance and ultimately cleansing by a Faithful God.

Yes, I am absolutely willing to concede precedence in this matter (and many others) to those that wrote it and cherished it for thousands of years before we Christians got ahold of it.

We received it. We didn't write it.

The first part (picking out the ten) is awesome, if only for all the wannabe commandments.

The second part (matching behaviors to commandments) is horribly weak on wording.

Recieved it from God, and then wrote it down. The actual writing was done by human hands. God didn’t just hand over a manuscript. That is what I meant by “wrote it”.

Exodus 32:15-16 (NIV):
Moses turned and went down the mountain with the two tablets of the Testimony in his hands. They were inscribed on both sides, front and back. The tablets were the work of God; the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tablets.
