... I think that Christian's believe that The Ten Commandments are supposed to be guidelines that we try live our lives by. For example Commandment three states, "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". To me ... should not use the Lord's name when something goes wrong as many people do without noticing. When God hears this he is not happy.

The Bible also ... commands us this, "And if a brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with thee; then thou shalt relieve him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with thee."

... new awakening to an eternal afterlife. The opening lines of Holy Sonnet 10, "Death be not proud, though some have called thee / Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so" (259) demonstrates his own uncertainty on the death issue, given that the "some" he mentions includes himself at times. However he denies the ... not an end to life. Rather, it is a kind of "sleep," a middle stage to overcome before being reunited with God.

THE FIFTH COMMANDMENT - ABORTION - Thou shalt not kill. "You have heard that it was said to the men of old, "You shall not kill: and whoever kills shall be liable to judgment."
