The Many Commandments

Angels triumph through heaven as we on earth break through the simple things that

count as blessings. So how can we be as triumphant on the angels are in heaven? By loving each day as directed by the Holy Spirit. The Bible gives us six hundred thirteen (613) commandments, two hundred forty-eight is positive and three hundred sixty-five are negative. Only ten (10) commandments, are frequently quoted, why? This is because we tend to only understand the ones that Moses was given. How many times have you read the Bible and read more than the ones you have heard about? Do you know if you can quote a scripture that you have never learned about through your life? Study the Bible from beginning to end and it will take more than the hand full of scriptures we hear about daily, through quotes, song, and written statements.

We know where to find the Ten Commandments, Exodus 20:6-17; however, do we know where to find the rest of the commandments? Being that there are so many Commandments, and many places in the Bible to find them we, will begin with the Easter Holiday Commandments first; I must say that these commandments are not set just for Easter, yet we are assured that this communion is honestly convened for the occasion.
