Ecclesiastes 12:9-14

In addition to being a wise man,

the Preacher also taught the people knowledge;

and he pondered, searched out and arranged many proverbs.

The Preacher sought to find delightful words and to write words of faith correctly.

 

The words of wise men are like goads,

and masters of these collections are like well-driven nails,

they are given by one Shepherd,

 

But beyond this, my son, be warned:

the writing of many books is endless,

and excessive devvotion to books is wearying to the body.

 

The conclusion,

when all has been heard, is this:

fear God and keep His commandments,

because this applies to every person.

 

For God will bring every act to judgment, everything which is hidden, whether it is good or evil.

 

That’s right it all comes down to this fear God and keep His commandments.

 

the Commandments given by God

Exo 20:3-17

“You shall have no other gods before Me."

“You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing lovingkindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments."

“You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not leave him unpunished who takes His name in vain."

“Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath of the LORD your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant or your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you. For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day and made it holy." “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be prolonged in the land which the LORD your God gives you."

“You shall not murder."

“You shall not commit adultery."

“You shall not steal."

“You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor."

“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife or his male servant or his female servant or his ox or his donkey or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”

 

In Matthew 22:36 Jesus was asked

“Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?”

 

Mat 22:37-40

and Jesus answer saying

“YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.

This is the great and foremost commandmen

“The second is like it, YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."

“On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets.”
