What are the Ten Commandments?

What are the Ten Commandments?

• A. Laws to live like God in his image
• B. Rules for the bishops
• C. Parables to learn from
• D. Fasts of the church

Answer: (A)

These are God’s rules for how to live, showing how to love and honor Him and how to treat other people. They were given to Moses on a mountain as a clear guide for daily life. The commandments cover ways to worship God first and speak respectfully about Him, and also how to relate to others—honor parents, do not harm or steal, tell the truth, and not envy what belongs to someone else. They aren’t about church leaders, parables, or church fasting; they’re timeless instructions to help us choose what’s right and live in a way that reflects God’s goodness.
