**** THE TEN COMMANDMENTS ****
As in the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark, if you could find the Ark of the Covenant (the original ten commandments) and accurately translate them into all languages, you would melt all of Satan's evil in the world like bolts of lightning. So here it is (in English):
The Ten Commandments were presented in an order of reverse-importance for the people of that day that thought in more of a later order of recall—the more recently received of the thought the more they would ponder on that thought. God placed the most desirous (or easiest) thoughts near the top to lure them into reading the rest. Today, we think in a more priority method, which usually places the most important thoughts nearer the top of the list; therefore, I will present the Ten Commandments in reverse order, with the most difficult to achieve commandments at the start.
10. THOU SHALT EQUALLY LOVE ALL THINGS IN THE WORLD (all people; all animals; and all property, possessions and nature) [Thou shalt not covet]. Or, conversely, THOU SHALT NOT HATE. This is also the most important commandment from Jesus—"love your enemies," etc.; and the most difficult for people to understand. Covet versus Equal Love: To covet means to selfishly single out your desires as to challenge—a sort of game in your subconscious (e.g. "win the car," "win the house," "win the girl's heart"). You have won the game if you have something that somebody else doesn't have. To covet breeds jealousy which brings hatred which causes innocent pain and suffering. Wealthy people have a harder time, than any other, in trying to restrain themselves from monopolizing and coveting for more.
There are two modern extreme definitions of love: SATANIC/COVET LOVE (an "overly desire" love)—"I just love that ring," "I just love that money," "I just love that person." This places love at a one extreme or the other way of thinking. And the other extreme is "hate." JESUS LOVE (a peaceful satisfied "sharing" love)—"we love all things in the world, all people in the world, and all animals in the world." Once all of the people of the world realize the benefits of equal and shared love, they each will have all of the possessions of the entire world, rather than their current limited possessions (no matter how large), they will be much happier in this life as they will in their afterlife. They will make the richest man in the current day world, look like a man that was of the poorest.
There are two modern extreme definitions of pride: SATANIC/COVET PRIDE (a selfish pride): greed, money, possessions, marriage, dishonesty for entertainment, revenge, laughter only when somebody gets hurt, etc. JESUS PRIDE (a considerate pride): The Golden Rule—helping others; good accomplishments and work (not at the unfair pain of others); having "simple common respect" for others—being punctual, maintaining an attractive appearance with proper bathing (so to not look or smell repulsive to others); having good tact (constructive [not destructive] criticism, language and acts that does not offend the innocence of others), etc. In the modern world, to entertain others, a clever idea based on honesty and fairness is by far more clever then a clever idea based on lies and biasism, because it is much harder to achieve. Do have pride in one's self, but not at the unfair expense of others—this is probably easy to understand, but very hard to implement.
9. THOU SHALT NOT CONVEY A FALSE IMPRESSION [thou shalt not bear false witness]. Or THOU SHALT NOT LIE. In addition to just "witnessing" something, it also covers all the thoughts of what you are thinking. Some people are trying to change the word "lie" to mean "just an error," not a knowingly intentional mistranslating of the entire truth. So that when God tells them they lied, they can lie to God and say "no, I just made a mistake." Well, I pray to God that He doesn't think that you are "just a mistake." Everybody will be able to share, achieve, and produce their works better for themselves and God's "wonder" if they are given the correct information. In some cases, if a lie helps an innocent person by not hurting, in any way, another innocent person, then the lie is not a sin; however, hypocrites beware, God knows the true result(s) of your lies. Many legal system people believe that lying is okay unless it is done under oath on the witness stand in a secular court room. I tell you that lying includes, but is not limited to, perjury on the witness stand. A lie is also "suppressing," "stifling" and/or "covering up" the truth. Sinead O'Connor did not "stifle" her "constructive" thoughts against the Pope.
8. THOU SHALT SHARE THINES PROPERTY EQUALLY AND FAIRLY [thou shalt not steal]. Nobody should selfishly take (steal) or exceedingly hold and restrict the use of any useful or desirable earthly possession, people, or animals. This includes, but is not limited to, slavery and monogamous marriage. Your neighbor will not be able to covet (the 10th commandment) your possessions if you, instead, openly as possible share your house, your wife, your manservant, your maidservant, your ox, your ass, or anything that is yours. As kids are told to "share," so should adults. I am not saying that you should force all of your junk and possessions to others, or just give it all away to people that don't need it; I'm saying the possessions you hold that are desirous to others, should be shared with others in somewhat of an organized manner. Of course, I realize that, in current day, a lot of people will take unfair advantage of your kindness, but the more Godly examples that people can make the better. If there are just some possessions that you can't be without, then sell all that you can and give the money to the poor and needy and ask for nothing in return—something is always better than nothing. The current possessions/services for "money" system does an excellent job of combatting this problem considering how many people, in current day, are breaking this commandment. It is impossible for true and good methods of prison reform and counseling to work as long as it contradicts and/or overlooks the sins of the wealthy and powerful; because truth and fairness (sharing of possessions) should apply to all people. Law enforcers and judges sin when they enforce laws biasly (e.g. giving a ticket to one person, and waiving the same violation to another).
7. THOU SHALT NOT BREAK EARTHLY PROMISES AND CONTRACTS [thou shalt not commit adultery]. Boy, this one's been through the ringer—"not committing adultery" is only one of the marriage vows (promises), not all of them. Marriage vows also includes not filing for divorce, etc.; and marriage vows are not the only kind of promise that can be broken! This also includes, but is not limited to, business contracts. (Please try to comprehend that if "adultery" is the only sin under this category, then where would all the other broken promise sins be?) These are all "laws and promises of man," not "laws of God." However, God considers it a sin if you change your mind and break the promise. Similar to a lie but different in the fact that you may have had honest intentions of originally carrying out the promise/contract, but later changed your mind. In the eyes of God, you are still expected to make good on the earthly promise/contract. This also includes paying your debts (bills) and by the promised time. Breaking (or "cheating" on) a contract (or promise) will hurt an innocent person; because the innocent person invested time and/or money, made arrangements/obligations, did work, etc. based on your promise; whereas otherwise, they could have taken that time to make a contract (or marriage) with a trusted person, that wouldn't have broken the contract. One exception is if the contract was made not in just. Another exception is if the other party(s) of the promise or contract willfully lets you out of it, or they "initially" break the same promise or contract, or parts thereof in equal respect. It is recommended to obey all of the "laws of the land"—right or wrong, fair or unfair; even though some of these laws may differ from Gods laws; because God, Moses and Jesus all know that if you drive 65 in a 55, your might get a ticket. Exceptions: If the common practice is to go 60 in a 55, then it's okay go the 60. And the most important exception is that if the law of the land demands that you break a Law of God—a sin, which is "anything that hurts an innocent person"—then by no means obey that law and feel honor to bear the earthly consequence, for you will later be in the highest of the Holy. Special honor should go to the early Christians for being tough enough to accept their torturous deaths, by the Roman Government, instead of taking their cowardly chances by serving in the covetous Roman Army.
If the conditions of your society makes it difficult for a man to obtain sex, unless he gets married; and/or if your society makes it difficult for a woman to obtain money/food, for herself and her children; then both prostitution and marriage are contracts not to be broken. Even though, in fact, marriage is just a secular lifetime live-in prostitution, neither side should break this promise/contract (unless society's conditions change); because one, or the other, or both, will suffer financially and/or suffer without any of (or less of) God's given sex. Plus, it is not as easy to obtain considerate "marriage material" in your later years; all the good ones seem to be taken. If you just want good companionship get a good dog or cat; they can be a lot less trouble. In all truth, because it restricts, confines and "imprisons" sex and property (which causes a lot more [indirect] problems, in this world) prostitution and monogamous marriage is a sin against God, nature and mankind; but this sin will only be paid for, in the afterlife, by those who instigated and/or caused those "conditions" in your society.—If you are just an innocent victim follower, you will not have to suffer for partaking in the sin of prostitution and marriage. [I realize that this unraveling of thousands-of-years of brainwash, that you've been taught, is going to be very difficult for you to freshly comprehend, but I will elaborate later.]
[Matt 19:3-12 & Mark 10:2-12] Jesus defined the word "adultery" also as "divorce," except if the woman breaks her marriage contract by not providing sex any longer for her husband (a sexual "wrong") [Matt 19:9]. But I tell you that it would be an exception also, if the man (her "john") breaks his marriage contract by not providing the financial support any longer for his wife. Also, the Bible seems to "allow" divorce if a person files for reasons other than to "marry another" [Mark 10:11,12]; but, I tell you that any unjustified breaking of the marriage contract constitutes adultery. Jesus also noted that the definitions of marriage, taught by the Jews (which was that God considered two people as "one" [or coequal] when they get married, as a balanced accountable [obligated] unified earthly "contract"), and "therefore" (Mark 10:9), by fairness, a man (also) is not allowed to divorce his wife; to override Moses' allowance that only men could divorce their wives for any reason, but wives could not divorce their husbands (the Old Testament).
6. THOU SHALT NOT KILL OR ORDER SOMEONE TO KILL [thou shalt not kill/murder]. This includes all humans and all animals. In some Bibles, the word "kill" has been changed to "murder." The converse meaning of the word "murder" is that it is okay to kill if your human leader(s) and/or "laws of your land" say you can. I say to you, you may not kill anybody just because some human being says you can. It is still a terrible sin. If you fight in a war, or bring capital punishment, you do not have God or Jesus on your side. It would be like saying that God and Jesus would support your enemy in torturing and killing you—well, it would not be "murder," because his earthly leader and/or his "law of his land" said that he could. Exceptions: (1) Euthanasia (mercy killing) or suicide because of irreversible physical pain, and suicide because of irreversible mental pain—if the evil world, that you live in, causes your mind that much "living hell" then it is your choice to decide, not others, when you can die. Suicide is not a sin, unless it is for revenge. The sin is on the selfish society and/or person(s) that caused your living hell which caused your early end of life. God, and all of the spirit world, would be proud if you could "tough it out" (mental pain only) and realize that all people that truly sin against you will pay for their sin(s) in the afterlife—no exceptions, no balancing the weight of one sin to a good deed, no false repentances. They could only repent by giving you your life and happiness back. For the word repent means, not only, to "change," and to "feel remorse" but also to "make due restitution"—which, if not made in your earthly life, would be judged by YOU (the victim) and God in the afterlife. They may or may not go to the extremes of hell, but they WILL feel the same pain that they caused you, equally, in their afterlife, to balance justice for the "Light-of-Truth." Anybody that suffers unfairly (including people in prison) should realize the same thing, that the society and/or person(s) that caused you to covet and/or over-correction, will pay for your suffering in their afterlife—but realize that two wrongs don't always make a right, if somebody else's harm to your innocence, has caused you to hurt another innocent person, then you have both sinned and both will pay for your sins in the afterlife. Few people know this, but nobody wants to kill themselves, unless they are in a tremendous amount of pain; whether it be physical pain or mental (depression) pain. And "mental" pain is the kind that most people cannot see as "pain," because it is not near as evident (it's not physical/tangible). And there are not too many cures for mental pain, in a world that believes that even more mental pain (guilt and stress—to motivate them) is necessary to solve poverty, and to somehow make the unlucky lucky; so as to serve and make the rich richer. If rich people weren't so dishonest (with themselves mostly) and a bit more intelligent, then there would be a lot less suicides. Nobody is going to realize this, but all crime, drug abuse, and suicide is caused by the "greed" of the wealthy, and the greed of the wealthy is caused by errors and ignorance in religious teachings. [John 12:25]. (2) Reasonable self defense against an individual who has initiated deadly violence against you or another innocent person. "Innocent" (here) means somebody that has not initiated the deadly violence. It's who starts the fight or escalates the fight, to the level of deadly violence, that is in the wrong. Example: If a leader initially threatens reasonable deadly violence against you, you should only somehow kill that leader, not his people. No group of people would come to you to kill you (invade you) unless they covet your possessions or thought you as a threat. In worst case, be the toughest of all, by doing as Jesus commands and give up your possessions. Because it does not matter under who's earthly rule that you live. All world leaders need people that "work for a living," so as long as you "work for a living," you should be fine, as long as you don't covet. People that fight in wars are selfish and weak.
5. THOU SHALT WORK GOOD FOR THINES EARTHLY BOSS [honor your mother and father]. Or HONOR YOUR BOSS. Note: like the word "adultery" (#7) that only pertains to adults, none of the Ten Commandments are bias by only pertaining to any one specific age group. Children (and everybody): do as your parents/teachers command unless it harms you innocently. Innocent (here) means anything that hurts you that is not for your own good, and/or is not for the correction of you hurting somebody else that's innocent. Talk to your parents and/or other authorities if you think something is wrong or unfair. Don't litter; show simple common respect to everybody (younger and older, bigger and smaller, relatives, friends, acquaintances, strangers, enemies, etc.), for they will repay you with happiness throughout eternity. Study well with pride to learn all of the good things in God's world while enjoying in all of its "wonder." Be happy to live in a time where there is so much you can see, learn and know. Any initially boring subject can be fascinating once you've discovered its unique "wonder." Adults: do a good, healthy and prideful labor for your employer, unless your employer requires you to sin (hurt an innocent person). Let's all "compete" in the game of good and fair. Jesus said "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy soul, and with all thy mind" [Matt. 22:37] and "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself" [Matt. 22:39]—these cover doing your earthly job with Godly love and pride, because when you do good "wonder" for your earthly boss, you equally do good "wonder" for God. George Burns (who once "played" God and lived to the age of 100) said it best when asked his secret of his long life, "You have to love whatever it is that you do." I can elaborate on this by saying that you should love whatever it is that you will be doing next. You can find the "good" love and the "good" pride in every honest job of God's world, no matter how difficult—the harder the job, the better you are working for God.
4. THOU SHALT TAKE A DAY OF REST [remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy]. The best case scenario is to work your regular job of "wonder," for God and man, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Use Saturday as the "day of work difference"—go to church; have fellowship with others; learn something new; go to a museum; take a class at college; go shopping; work on or clean your home, yard, car, etc.; or anything that is educationally and/or laboriously different than you regular M-F job—and mix and match these needs. Then Sunday will be a day to do nothing or do what ever pleases thineself—watch T.V. all day, go to the park, just goof off, etc.—don't be expected to attend a "school of religion" (church, etc.) on your "day of total rest"—Sunday. Whether your job be blue-collar, white-collar, or a combination, you will preform it with more "wonder" if you practice this Sabbath. Now, if there's anybody that doesn't keep to a schedule, it's Me. Remember, this is a scenario that most people would best follow; however, if you're a policeman, fireman, nurse [Luke 14:3,4], etc. take your Sabbath any other time during the week. But usually try to stay consistent with whatever best suits you. And maybe try to take your "day of total rest," on the day just after your "day of work difference," so that your mind has a full day to ponder on the new knowledge (or achievements) that you learned (or accomplished). Again this is general guidelines, not carved in stone anymore—because this is one commandment that society has pretty much practiced overall, so these are just new slight modifications. For example, you could switch your "day of difference" to Sunday, and your "day of total rest" to Saturday or Wednesday or whatever best suits you and/or your environment of the times.
3. THOU SHALT CONTROL THINES ANGER [thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain]. This covers anger against all people and things, not just "the Lord thy God." The Lord thy God is very touched that you respect His name, but it is time to start doing what the Lord thy God has always demanded, and start respecting each other.
Anger is an emotion that God put into all animals (including humans) as an automatic way to correct the wrongs that other animals (or other people) have inflicted on them, for defensive purposes of long range survival. However, humans—separate from other animals, via higher intelligence and fast reasoning abilities (but not yet perfected)—should override this emotion because humans' "revenge" usually always exceeds the "equal" (eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth) justice level of the correction. Example: If someone wrongfully punches us in the nose, we might desire to cut their entire head off. Therefore, humans are still in development of a truthful (making sure that a true "wrong" has been done—via trials, etc.) organized justice system of government to "correct" the true wrong doers at a more "equal" level, so that nobody has to exceed their animal emotion of anger anymore. Human's can now always implement the "better" solution, to the problem, if they use their new logic abilities instead of antiquated animal anger. There are times, however, when I will logically "act" angry when I'm really not; but My current mortal character is of an imperfect person, just like everybody else.
A true wrong doer is anybody that purposely hurts an innocent person. An "innocent person" is a person that did not do anything to hurt an "innocent person." Discipline to "correct" should be the only way of hurting back the wrong doer; however, if punishment exceeds "equal" value of the wrong, then the disciplinarian becomes a true wrong doer because by over-disciplining they have caused the original wrong doer to become an innocent victim. "Equal" discipline is necessary only so the true wrong doer can "feel" the equal innocent damage that they did to an innocent person so as to educate, rather than condemn (over-discipline). A person should never be "disciplined" without first being truthfully educated of how they hurt an "innocent" person. When you cause suffering (hurt) to anybody, right or wrong, you are causing suffering (hurting) to God, the entire Spirit World, and yourself in your own eternal afterlife (heaven); so BE CAREFUL with your corrections. Assume that when you have to hurt somebody (even if only to correct) that you are hurting part of God. Remember, you (and everybody) WILL, eventually, feel what they feel, even if/when they truly deserve it, no matter how bad it is; because everybody will, eventually, get to heaven (all things).
To paraphrase, a guilty (not innocent) person is only someone that has "hurt an innocent person" or has over-disciplined a "guilty" person. Example: If somebody was angry because their boss wronged them, then they should only avenge (equally discipline) the boss, instead of coming home and taking it out on their innocent spouse or kids. However, usually there are far more serious consequences (in the present world) if the person avenges (to correct) anybody above them on the hierarchy order. Until authorities (bosses, police, teachers, parents, etc.) become honest (or strong) enough to be able to admit when "they" are wrong and "appreciate" being educated of their error, then innocent people will probably continue to get hurt. The way society currently works, the more you can "cover up" your errors, the more Godly you will "appear" to others (and yourself). The most important thing to understand is that "purposely hurting an innocent person" will always be "a wrong" and (possibly even more important) it is the only thing that should require discipline. Therefore, to find out if someone did anything wrong, that would require discipline, then all you have to do is ask yourself if they "purposely hurt an innocent person." Anything else should be dealt with differently or completely ignored.
Many competitive sports, with fair rules, help absorb the natural Ungodly desire for hatred, anger and revenge; which, in turn, sometimes can help lessen the hatred, anger and revenge in everyday life. Many violent types of movies can do the same—to see somebody "get it" in a movie, is much better then somebody really getting hurt in real life. Therefore, in addition to entertainment, certain sports and movies should be looked at as a way to relieve your frustrations rather than a guide of how to deal with other people in your life. Many people try to anger people as a way of motivation. This is a sin and people should realize the other way to motivate people—"goal motivation." Example: There is a race track near by that races animals. They race two kinds of animals—dogs and horses. The dogs are motivated to run via "goal motivation"—they chase "Woody"; which is a "reward." The horses are motivated to run via a jockey on their back with a whip—"pain motivation." Which type of motivation do you think is Godly and which one is Satanic? I tell you, that you will find out, for sure, in your afterlife.
Generally, the lower the I.Q. of a person, the easier they will become emotionally angry, because the human brain can solve problems better with logic rather than our natural animal emotion of anger. It is not wrong if you become angry, that is natural. It is wrong to wrath (furious anger). You're human, not an animal, when somebody sins against you, deal with it logically, not emotionally. All human problems can be dealt with better with logic and intelligence, even in the martial arts. Wrath does protect animals, but it is now a "software bug" in human beings.
What would Jesus say about anger?—He'd say be "the toughest" by letting it go; and face whatever's next.
2. THOU NEED NOT LOOK TO OTHER SOURCES/WAYS FOR HAPPINESS [thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image]. Like don't eat animals as another source/way for happiness/food. Don't take (or take in excess) any unhealthy/dangerous drugs. This also covers (or associates with) worshipping idols, worshipping marriage (a spouse), and/or worshipping "emptiness" (things your senses cannot detect); blind faith in your leaders, blind faith in popular people, and/or blind faith in any non-global, non-conclusive religion (that is not in total agreement with everybody in the entire world); and certain fads. But don't confuse this with the fact that you should work good for your boss, and obey secular laws. "For the Lord thy God is a jealous God"—not really "jealous," He just knows what's best for everybody; because no other "whole" or "universal" source is better. "The Golden Rule" is the only true Godly thing/person that you should "idol."
1. THOU SHALT BE HAPPY [thou shalt have no other gods before Me]. Or THOU SHALT HAVE GOD. To "have" God and be rid of "other" Gods—Satan. Beware of false prophets—people that ignorantly preach with no reasonable logic. Just because it sounds good (or right), doesn't necessarily mean it is. Beware of Antichrists—people that warp the meaning of the true Jesus Christ for their own personal desires and/or their attempt to "lie" their way into heaven—especially those people that had taken the liberty of embellishing the original Gospels and Scriptures, influenced by their cultural pressures and personal desires. Many people believe that if they can get you to believe their lies and false logic, that God will also believe their lies and false logic. Beware of people who make a "law of man" into a "law of God"—"Laws of man" can change with the times/circumstances, but "laws of God" are permanent. Otherwise, "laws of man" will not get changed when they become antiquated, found to be bias, found to cause worse problems, found erroneous, etc. Beware of people who condemn you instead of trying to correct you, when you have sinned, for they are not God's friend. Do not have total "blind faith" in any leader, human being, spirit, writings, etc. Do not judge (or trust) their word just because they are wealthy, powerful or well educated. Satan works best when you don't know he's there. Always question the logic of authority figures and/or anyone that you believe to be wrong or unfair to yourself and/or anybody else. Complain or talk to their superiors if need be—but never lie when complaining about somebody. Always hear and fully understand both sides of a conflicting story before you make serious decisions.—Woe to those who condemn (or cover-up) people's questions/complaints. Beware of the tricks of the Devil: The Devil will sometimes try to fool you into making you seek certain types of perfection, when perfection is impossible or impracticable to the unique situation. The Devil will tempt you with immediate pleasures (even with sex, laughter and music) that will ultimately result in harm to you, and/or others.—Like how over-eating/drinking can cause you problems.
Many religious denominations contradict in beliefs; but sometimes, can both be in the right (they are just looking at things from different perspectives), and some particulars are just down right in error. In any case, religions may start out good, but are all subject to embellishments and deviations because of two things: (1) Some translators take the liberty of warping some of the meanings so to slightly adjust the teachings to better suit their earthly personal desires, problems, and wealth. After time, many parts will totally contradict each other and corrupt the original meanings. (2) Some preachers abuse their power by searching for reasons to heighten the severity of sins that are easy for them to follow, and lessen the severity of sins that are hard for them to follow, so as to hopefully trick God into believing them as individually more righteous—all sins vary in the intensity by the "degree of innocent suffering" it causes. These types of preachers will sin, by trying to fool God, by condemning people that do the lesser sins (the poor) while ignoring correction to the people that do major sins (the rich). They will make mountains out of molehills, and molehills out of mountains. This type of false preaching causes more problems in the world than any other one thing—people and society believe their religious teachings more than it may appear, even if they don't attend church—because churches teach society and society teaches everybody. True Godly happiness is where nobody hurts anybody.
The Ten Commandments' "order of importance" is not listed in order of what is the most destructive sins, it is in order of the sins that people need to learn, study on, and "adjust to" the most. Example: If everybody did not covet (#10), then none of the other commandments would ever be broken. And so on down the list:
If you are strong enough to EQUALLY LOVE ALL THINGS IN THE WORLD you won't have anybody to CONVEY A FALSE IMPRESSION to; if you don't seek to CONVEY A FALSE IMPRESSION you won't ever desire to "compete/compare to impress," therefore you will have no problem in having to SHARE YOUR PROPERTY; if you SHARE YOUR PROPERTY you won't need to optimize your selfish wealth by BREAKING PROMISES; if your leader(s) is the type to NOT BREAK PROMISES you won't ever be asked to KILL; if you won't ever KILL you will instead WORK GOOD FOR YOUR ultimate BOSS (God); if you WORK GOOD FOR YOUR BOSS you will more enjoy your DAY OF REST; if you have a true DAY OF REST you will be able to better CONTROL YOUR ANGER; if you better CONTROL YOUR ANGER the less you will LOOK TO OTHER SOURCES/WAYS FOR HAPPINESS; the less you LOOK TO OTHER SOURCES/WAYS FOR HAPPINESS the more you will BE HAPPY—with all of God's universe, people and wonder. And the more you're HAPPY with all of God's universe, people and wonder, the more you will become like God and understand what God's purpose is—HAPPINESS, for you and Him.
Or, conversely: If you aren't HAPPY, you will LOOK TO OTHER SOURCES/WAYS FOR HAPPINESS; if you're continually searching for the wrong SOURCES/WAYS FOR HAPPINESS, you will become more frustrated and ANGRY; if you are always/more ANGRY, you will never/rarely have a true DAY OF REST; if you never/rarely have a true DAY OF REST, you will not WORK as GOOD FOR YOUR BOSS; and you are not WORKing GOOD FOR YOUR ultimate BOSS (God) if you KILL; but you won't need to KILL if your leader(s) is the type that will NOT BREAK PROMISES; and if you BREAK PROMISES, that means that you are trying to optimize your selfish material possessions, and therefore you will vainly not SHARE YOUR PROPERTY; if you will not SHARE YOUR PROPERTY you will continually need to lie to the poor (and yourself), [which includes "passing the buck (blame)" to the poor,] of "why" you cannot SHARE YOUR PROPERTY, which is CONVEYing A FALSE IMPRESSION; if you need to always CONVEY A FALSE IMPRESSION, you aren't even close to "EQUALLY" LOVEing ALL THINGS IN THE WORLD.
— JESUS — Jesus expressed the two great commandments that "hang all the Law and the Prophets" [Matt. 22:40]. Jesus said the first is "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God (the universe) with all thy heart, with all thy soul, and with all thy mind"—[Matt. 22:37]—this is synonymous with the "first" of the Ten Commandments: THOU SHALT BE HAPPY. And the only way for everybody to BE HAPPY (and the HAPPIEST of all) is what Jesus then said, "And the second is like unto (toward) it: 'Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself (the Golden Rule).'"—[Matt. 22:39]—this is synonymous with the tenth of the Ten Commandments: THOU SHALT "EQUALLY" LOVE ALL THINGS (mainly people and "possessions" [first]) IN THE WORLD.
Since the original Ten Commandments has translation, communication, and/or elaboration problems, Jesus clarified it all by calling it "a new commandment" [John 13:34,35]: "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another." Also, [John 15:12,17]: "This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you."; "These things I command you, that you love one another." Of course, we're talking here the recently "summed up" phrase "the Golden Rule." The Golden Rule correctly "sums up" what everybody "should do," but nobody does it, so My "partial" elaboration phrase "sums up" exactly what everybody "should NOT do," first: "Never do anything that hurts an 'innocent' person." Once that's done, then we can further do (or emphasize) things to make others happy (or happier), without (always) having to get some kind of "covetous possession" back. Of course, with the rich people believing that if they, for example, give to the poor, that they are just "giving" and not "giving back" the poor workers' stolen "work," (this is why workers get to the point where they don't desire to work for the selfish rich anymore).—Therefore, it is even now still difficult to "sum up" exactly what "not hurting an 'innocent' person" is. For this reason I must also later explain in-depth true examples and elaborations of the word "fair."
Since the entire Bible has translation, communication, and/or elaboration problems, I will clarify: Let's start at the beginning and see what we have got: God created everything; therefore, God is everything (including every thought). To love and worship God, means to love and worship the entire universe/earth (including everything in it). But, of course, your five senses can only pick-up on just part of the universe/earth. Therefore, to love and worship God, you must love and worship everything in your sensed environment (within your five senses), all of the time; especially other humans—as Jesus emphasized (trying to get to first base). This includes other people/animals/things that you do not "directly" sense, but you (or your actions) affect them/it. This also means that you should love every thought that you think, and also everybody else's thoughts (that can even be against you).—This particularly means to worship your (and others') thoughts of "constructive criticism" (helpful advice) for all and everything. Of course, you have the right to oppose sin, but only with love for the sinner, as how you would discipline your child. "Everything" means "everything," and "all" means "all" here.
Just walk/look around and say that you love everything that you see, feel, hear, think, etc.; and then don't ever stop (quit thinking this), until you are doing it (or blending this in) naturally. This does not mean that you should quit work and just lie down and go to sleep all day; on the contrary, it means that if you love and worship everything (God), you will be naturally and willfully motivated to work (or labor) good, to enhance "your part of" everything that you love, by creating more and better (including all the prerequisites to) "wonder"; as you still love and reap the benefits of your "past" wonders. Generically, it is "good" to place many things in their better positions; and it is "good" to leave many things just where they are; and each thing can be changed, or not changed, in time.—You're the thinking human (the "living" part of God), it's your job to correctly (properly) decide what goes where, and when.—I cannot hold your hand on every decision. [I have found that it is very difficult
to "love everything" in this "dog eat dog" world, that we currently live in.—Whoever that can do it, is much stronger than I.] If you want some help in trying to like a person better, pretend that they just saved your life; then ask yourself "how would I treat them then?" Or, explain to yourself/Me why you should not treat them the same, either way.
People that want to worship God, should worship everything they see, feel, touch, think, etc. People that don't realize this are worshiping emptiness; and "kissing up to" emptiness will not help you in your afterlife. "Things" (people, animals, flowers, cars, mountains, the Missouri River, walls, stars, thoughts, etc.) are all more in control of your afterlife "judgment" than emptiness. Therefore love, adore, cherish, treasure, respect, honor, glorify, admire, praise, comfort, value, appreciate, relish, and worship every "thing" within your five senses.—Like the ground, the ski, the mountains, the ocean, trees, insects, houses, streets, trash (recycle), all faces, all bodies, George Bush, Saddam Hussein, etc.; including all your (and everybody else's) sensed and predicted thoughts (beliefs, concepts, considerations, contemplations, convictions, designs, ideas, intents, plans, purposes, theories, anticipations, expectations, feelings, etc). You see, there is a lot more stuff in this world to enjoy, that you are now limiting yourself to. I do realize that you can't dwell love on everything all at one time; but you can dwell the love "out of" the thought/thing/animal/person of your current focus, with all peripheral thoughts/things/animals/people surrounding you with "waiting love." And if anything above (somebody's name) "ruffled your feathers," then ask yourself if you are "really" a true Christian who can sincerely and positively "love your enemies" (as Jesus ordered); or do you just go to (or run) a church, that worships emptiness. If religions (across the world) would worship the truth (the Golden Rule) one-one hundredth as much as they worship emptiness, it would solve all world (religious based) problems.
I also realize that humans have a hard time mentally working together, unless it attributes to somebody getting hurt—like for war or competitive business. You'd all work together if "space people" were attacking earth, wouldn't you? But if you worry about pleasing God you'd better adjust to the reality that God is "emotionally" everything. A special "woe" from God (the universe) goes to the adamant opposers (and/or ignorers) of these messages. [The purpose of This Paper is to let God/Jesus talk to you
through/with Me].
Comparable to (but beyond) the laws of physics, to advance further past the laws of biology, this is the laws of God. Now back to first base:
