Law of Moses

Law of Moses

The below is commonly called the Law of Moses. It is the Ten Commandments that God gave to Moses. It is recorded in Exodus 20.

1 And God spake all these words, saying,
2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
13 Thou shalt not kill.
14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
15 Thou shalt not steal.
16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.

After the giving of the Law of Moses, the people said that they would obey them. Gave gave his law, the Ten Commandments, and wrote them with his finger in stone. Moses carried the two stone tablets and put the law of Moses in the Ark of the Covenant. https://10commandments.biz/biz/welcome.phtml

If you have followed the rise of the Christian jurist, Alabama Supreme Court Justice Tom Parker, then your answer is yes. For demonstrating unflinching courage in the field of legal and spiritual battle; for modeling a heroic commitment to historic constitutional and Christian principles of justice; for restoring the biblical duty of the judge to defend women and children; for acting without compromise, but with remarkable charity and gentlemanly demeanor; and for restoring hope to a generation of Christians who have, for decades, lived in the shadows of judicial tyranny, Justice Tom Parker is the 2005 Vision Forum George Washington Man of the Year. In our view, he represents the very best example of visionary, righteous, Christian leadership. Read the rest of the story at:

Judge Roy Moore

MONTGOMERY, Alabama, Feb. 16/Covenant News Wire Service/ -- Judge Roy Moore, former Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court, Vietnam Veteran, and Chairman of the Foundation for Moral Law, sent a letter to President George Bush today urging our Commander-in-Chief to protect the right of military chaplains to pray in the name of Jesus.

In his letter, Judge Moore told the President that he is "greatly disturbed by reports that chaplains of the United States are being refused the right to pray according to the dictates of their conscience" and "have been told that they cannot pray in the name of Jesus Christ." Judge Moore reminded the President that he has the constitutional authority and duty to protect the religious freedom of chaplains:

"At a time when the ACLU and other organizations dedicated to the removal of the knowledge of God from our land have joined forces with liberal federal court judges to interfere with our God-given inalienable right to worship according to the dictates of our conscience, it is the duty of the President of the United States to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Ten Commandments of Moses marker may return: Panel approves bill putting monument on Capitol grounds.

A Ten Commandments monument would return to the Capitol grounds in Frankfort under a bill passed by a Senate committee yesterday -- six years after a federal judge barred a previous display.

The measure was approved unanimously as part of the latest expansion of a bill that passed the Kentucky House of Representatives 91-3 earlier this month.

Senate President David Williams believes that would meet the latest U.S. Supreme Court criteria on such displays, and he doesn't fear a court challenge.

"I can't think of anything else I'd rather be sued about than having the Ten Commandments of Moses on the Capitol grounds," Williams said. He added that he is among those who believe "it's important to note in a historical context the importance of the Ten Commandments of Moses and other Judeo-Christian documents in the formation of this country."

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- A long battle to remove a Ten Commandments monument from a Pleasant Grove park is finally over.

At the request of the Society of Separationists, a judge has officially dropped a lawsuit by the group who wanted the monument removed from the park.

They had asked for the lawsuit to be dismissed last year after the U-S Supreme Court ruled on the constitutionality of Ten Commandments displays on public property.

This week, a judge granted a request by city lawyers to dismiss the case.

You remember the 10 Commandments, that ancient list of "instructions for living? proffering religious and moral imperatives, which, according to the Bible, was spoken by God to Moses on Mount Sinai.

It took Art Green ovr 2 months to build and post the 22 crafted 10 Commandments.

Green says his handiwork is ?an inspiration from the Lord?it wasn?t an idea of my own.?

Green says the inspiration to provide travelers with a visual respite and some thought-provoking roadside reading material was something he knew he had to act on in a timely fashion.

Editorial Note: Art Green obviously has a deep understanding of Deuteronomy 11:18-21 and the law of Moses

This legislation has passed the House 242-182. If this legislation passes the U.S. Senate, federal officials would be prohibited from carrying out the illegal order of the federal court to remove the Ten Commandments at the Gibson County Courthouse.

A similar bill passed the House in July 2003, that would have prohibited the infamous order from Federal Judge Myron Thompson from being executed against moving the Ten Commandments Monument at the Alabama Supreme Court, that is associated with Chief Justice Judge Roy Moore. The legislation did not pass the Senate in 2003.
