We in this house
have many friends of the
LGBTQ+ community,
we both have Red and Black Ancestors
so, will we be Shunned, harmed or killed
if we visit the church up the
street
for their Halloween party?
I have been studying
commandants from the 'Trinity' Father G-d, Son Jesus Christ, and Spirit looking
for information as to why we Christians should be shunning, harming and killing
anyone not
'White'?
It is not in any of
the books that I have been reading.
Anyone care to help
me out?
Romans
13:9
"For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou
shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and
if [there be] any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying,
namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself."
Most
scholars date this event around the 13th or 14th century BC. God gave the
Decalogue, or 10 Commandments, to the Israelites shortly after they left Egypt.
The record of the Ten Commandments can be found in the Bible, both in Exodus
20:2-17 and Deuteronomy 5:6-21.

Ten
Commandments: King James Version
God's Law, the Ten Commandments, is expressed in Exodus
20:2-17 (KJV) with the following:
“I
am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of
the house of bondage.
1.
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
2. 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. 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; And shewing
mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
3. 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.
4. Remember
the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy
work: 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: 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.
5. Honour
thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the
Lord thy God giveth thee.
6. Thou
shalt not kill.
7. Thou
shalt not commit adultery.
8. Thou
shalt not steal.
9. Thou
shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
10. 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 neighbor’s."
The
Commandments of Jesus
From
the Four Gospels
1.
"When you stand praying, forgive"
"And
when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so
that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins." But if you do not
forgive, neither will your Father who is in heaven forgive your sins."
(Mark 11:25-26 NIV)
2.
"You must be born again"
"You should not be surprised at my saying, 'You must be born
again." (John 3:7 KJV)
3.
"Remain in Me and I will remain in you"
When
you ask Jesus into your heart and He becomes your Lord and Savior, the Holy
Spirit lives in you, and you in Him. Here Jesus uses a grapevine to compare our
relationship with Him. "Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch
can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear
fruit unless you remain in me." ( John 15:4 NIV)
4.
"Let your light shine before men"
"You
are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. " In the
same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds
and praise your Father in heaven," (Matt 5:14;16 NIV).
5.
"Settle matters quickly with your adversary"
"Settle
matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you
are still with him on the way, or he may hand you over to the judge, and the
judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into
prison." (Matt 5:25 NIV)
6.
"Get rid of whatever causes you to sin"
"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." (Matt 5:29-30 NIV)
7.
"Do Not Swear at All"
"But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for
it is God's throne: Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by
Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King. Neither shalt thou swear by
thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black. But let your
communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh
of evil." (Matt 5: 34-37, KJV)
8.
"Do Not Resist an Evil Person"
(Turning the other cheek.)
"You
have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ But I tell
you, Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek,
turn to him the other also," (Matt 5:38-39 NIV).
9.
"Giving More than is Demanded"
(Going the extra mile)
"And
if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as
well. If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. Give to the
one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from
you," (Matt 5:40-42 NIV).
10.
"Love Your Enemies"
"You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and
hate your enemy.' But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who
persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun
to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the
unrighteous," (Matt 5:43-45 NIV).
11.
"Give to Please God, Not to be Seen"
"Be careful not to do your 'acts of righteousness' before
men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in
heaven," (Matt 6:1 NIV).
12.
"Pray Privately, Not to be Seen by Men"
"And
when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in
the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the
truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your
room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father,
who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not
keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of
their many words,"
(Matt
6:5-7 NIV)
13.
"This, then, is how you should pray"
"This,
then, is how you should pray: " 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your
name, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us
today our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our
debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.'
For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly
Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins, your
Father will not forgive your sins," (Matt 6:9-15 NIV).
14.
"Fast Without Fanfare"
"When
you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their
faces to show men they are fasting. I tell you the truth, they have received
their reward in full," (Matt 6:16 NIV).
15.
"Do not Store up Treasures on Earth"
"Do
not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy,
and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in
heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in
and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also,"
(Matt
6:19-21 NIV).
16.
"Do not Worry about Your Needs"
"Therefore
I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about
your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the
body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow
or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are
you not much more valuable than they?" (Matt 6:25-26 NIV). Commandments of
Jesus
17.
"Do not Worry about Tomorrow"
"Therefore
do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has
enough trouble of its own," (Matt 6:34 NIV).
18.
"Place God First"
"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness;
and all these things shall be added unto you," (Matt 6:33 NIV).
19.
"Do not Judge"
"Do
not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you
will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you,"
(Matt
7:1-2 NIV).
20.
"Guard what is Sacred"
"Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to
pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear
you to pieces,"
(Matt 7:6 NIV).
21.
"Ask, Seek, and Knock"
"Ask
and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be
opened to you,"
(Matt
7:7 NIV).
22.
"Care for Those in Distress"
"Then
the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my
Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation
of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty
and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I
needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in
prison and you came to visit me,"
(Matt
25:34-36 NIV).
23.
"Enter Through the Narrow Gate"
"Enter
through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads
to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the
road that leads to life, and only a few find it,"
(Matt
7:13-14 NIV).
24.
"Watch out for false prophets"
"Watch
out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they
are ferocious wolves," (Matt 7:15 NIV).
25.
"Exercise Spiritual Power"
"He
called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil
spirits and to heal every disease and sickness," (Matt 10:1 NIV).

the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons.
Freely you have received, freely give," (Matt 10:8 NIV)."
26.
"Do not Despise Childlike Believers"

that you do not look down on one of these little ones. For I tell you that
their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven," (Matt
18:10 NIV). Commandments of Jesus

"Do not Exalt Yourself"
"But
you are not to be called 'Rabbi,' for you have only one Master and you are all
brothers. And do not call anyone on earth 'father,' for you have one Father,
and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called 'teacher,' for you have one
Teacher, the Christ. The greatest among you will be your servant. For whoever
exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be
exalted," (Matt 23:8-12 NIV).
28.
"Settle Disputes Between Believers in this Manner..."
"If
your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault, just between the two
of you. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over. But if he will
not listen, take one or two others along, so that 'every matter may be
established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.' If he refuses to
listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the
church, treat him as you would a pagan or a tax collector,"
(Matt
18:15-17 NIV).
29.
"Do not Oppose Other Christian Groups"
"Teacher," said John, "we saw a man driving out
demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of
us."
"Do
not stop him," Jesus said. "No one who does a miracle in my name can
in the next moment say anything bad about me, for whoever is not against us is
for us," (Mark 9:38-40 NIV).
30.
"Have Complete Faith in God"
"Have
faith in God," Jesus answered. "I tell you the truth, if anyone says
to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his
heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have
received it, and it will be yours," (Mark 11:22-24 NIV).

him.' Jesus told him, "Go and do likewise,"

command is this: Love each other as I have loved you," (John 15:12 KJV).

"Do this in Remembrance of Me"
"And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to
them, saying, 'This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of
me.'"
"In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying,
'This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you,'"
(Luke 22:19-20 NIV).

that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one
another's feet,"
