If you live in the USA you know where I’m going with this post… Seriously, has everyone become so lazy that simple courtesy is out of fashion.

Frankly, fashion doesn’t matter.  What DOES Matter is that the current generation of young adults, teenagers and the likes have absolutely No Moral Values or Ethics.

Respect and Lying… None
Adultery and Stealing… None
Love one another… Nope
and On and On and On

Why is this? I believe it is because of the deterioration of old fashion/traditional ways of rearing our children, like discipline, teaching and instruction, guidance, protection and the necessary preparation of our youth to carry on good Christian values. The Ten Commandments make it very clear. I wish more people new about the importance of keeping the Ten Commandments in Fashion.

In fact the US Supreme Court ruled (June 28, 2005) on public displays of the Ten Commandments across America that may be the summation of what we are currently dealing with.

The Ten Commandments are the most important and maybe misunderstood Laws of God, but they are the road map to living life in a moral, ethical and scrupulous way. They are in the open for all to see and obey. Your choice!

Here are three versions of Gods Ten Laws from three different bibles, side-by-side.

Bottom line, if the younger generations payed more attention to life’s moral structure we would be able to have the Body of Christ in whole now, and happiness would abound worldwide. What a shame that all the morals have gone!

Unfortunately, it is these very same youths parents that are to blame. They have become lax, lazy and simply engrossed in the pursuit of what the world is offering them from the dark side like greed, materialism, pride and living life without knowing what their purpose is here on Earth.

I am (and we should be) appalled at their conduct and that they are becoming a society of misguided heathens. I try (we need) to take every opportunity that presents itself and correct the situation on the spot… (at least point it out to these folks)!

Where have all the morals gone?

Are you living by the Laws of God?

Originally I set out for this post to be about the Ten Commandments.

During my research on that topic I discovered something that connects more with another post here at Bible-Religion.com.

In my post titled “Are You Growing in Favor with God and Humanity” I quoted a passage from the book “The Keys To Heavens Economy” and included some additional verses that I discovered in my research of the passage.

The additional verses from Isaiah 58:13-14 have spurred a more intement search in me to dig deeper into their meaning.  Yes, I’m talking about the Sabbath, the seventh day of the week to observe the Sovereignty of the Lord.

“Observing a Sabbath—a period of rest—has gone out of fashion.”  Which is part of the reason why the basic fundamentalism of Christianity is rebuked by non-believers and the weak who fight for their own delights in this world.

Through my curiosity and necessity for a full understanding of this topic…. I discovered the following article from the New Living Translation website search archive.  In this article you will find some of the fundamental life attitudes that the Bible says flow with the Sabbath.

This practice is really very easy to follow as long as you’re not influenced by the strategies of the fundamentalist governments and their supporting talking heads.

Do You Know Why the Sabbath Really Matters?

Be stewards of the earth. “The land itself must observe a Sabbath rest”
Leviticus 25:2 NLT

The Bible may look like one book, but it is actually sixty-six rolled into one. Thirty-nine books make up what we call the Old Testament, and twenty-seven make up the New Testament.  God used many authors–as many as forty–over a time-period of many centuries to write the sixty-six books of the Bible.  This makes each book unique.

The first five books of the Bible are known as the Pentateuch or “Five Books of Moses”.  The Laws of God are known as the Ten Commandments.

But even though each book has its own style and character, each one contributes to God’s life-changing message.  What is that message? Through the Bible, God makes it clear that he loves us and has a plan to save us from the destructive power of sin.
