My Journey Through Decalogues

The Ten Commandments or the decalogues are familiar with us and almost everybody now knows something about them. These are the principles and good manners one has to follow and keep them to attain the eternity or a place in Heaven, to keep our ways pure. These are the attitude principles and the suggestions to set the behaviour.

Christians, who do not abide with these ten commandments will be responsible to show their deeds in front of the God. Being a Christian,even i always keep on thinking whether am keeping these commandments or not. Everytime i analyze and every time i fail. And this failure means am not doing that which is done by the atheists. And thereby i am lowered in the sight of God and so in the society.

Am an epic failure being the one who believes in God and praying him. Am just another creation which went on a wrong turn (I think).
And as above discussed, if the atheists are following the decalogues without being aware of God and on the other side me not even able to stay in them. Then,there is no doubt in saying that am a step down to those people.


And i don't want to get drove myself straight to the hell and i don't want to stay calm about the sin(s) i did. I would like to speak about how i failed being a human and especially being a Christian in following the commandments which are put forth before me.

How i failed in keeping the Ten commandments

Commandment No.1 FAILED ✘

You shall have no other gods before me
I didn't worshipped any other god rather than the one i believe. But i HAD other god in my life and that god is the WORLD. The worldly things, most colorful and so attractive. And irresistible things and highly dragging the heart. The television is the other God, the movies and shows are other Gods. And hence i fell and failed in one.

Commandment No.2 FAILED ✘
You shall not make a for yourself a carved image or any likeness of anything

I made no carved images of anything. But in my heart i made images of those things which i gave much more importance than prayer and The Bible. And hence i fell and failed in two.

Commandment No.3 FAILED ✘
You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain

I am a little too much boaster and while i talk many times i used the words which will begin with the word 'God' and end with the word 'God'. So it is all clear, unclean here . And hence i fell and failed in three.

Commandment No.4 FAILED ✘
Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it Holy

I remember the Sabbath day but i didn't keep it Holy as i practised on sinful things mostly the late nights on saturdays. That which means sunday . And i am not regular to the church and i sinned much each and every Sabbath day.
And hence i fell and failed in four.

Commandment No.5 FAILED ✘
Honour your Father and Mother

Respect and honour are always been my crown and i kept this with me. But am a human, am not invincible and I made many mistakes. When i rose in anger i dishonoured my parents. And hence i fell and failed in five.

Commandment No.6 FAILED ✘
You shall not murder
Literally saying i didn't murder. But, i do murder, I hurt some peoples feelings and i killed their dreams either directly or indirectly and failed someone's hopes and broke others faith and trust. So, here am completely down and it equals to a physical murder. And hence i fell and failed in six.

Commandment No.7 FAILED ✘
You shall not commit adultery

Here i would like to quote a verse from The Bible,Which is said by JESUS.

"But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart"
Matthew 05:28 (NIV).

So, i had done that adultery. And still am doing it each and every single day. And let me tell that how am doing it, i am not going to the prostitutes and i didn't yet touch a girl. Then, how can i say that i'm on to it, because of the thoughts and dreams and imaginations and viewing the beautiful girls on TV and somewhere and feeling having them, fantasizing. And this means all enough to say i'm done. And hence i fell and failed in seven.


Commandment No.8 FAILED ✘
You shall not steal

I stealed much, yea i did that a lot. I stealed at my own home and i took all the bad experiences in the stealing. Hence i fell and failed in eight.

Commandment No.9 FAILED ✘
You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour

I didn't do that, witnessing falsely. But i remember from the past when am a kid i said a false witness. That is a joke, but jokes aren't having anything to do with the reality. It may be a joke, but hurt someone. And hence i fel and failed in nine.

Commandment No.10 FAILED ✘
You shall not covet

Covetousness is the one habit in all blood. I am not willing to have my eye on others property. Either their wealth or wives or any belongings. But at once when we see a new thing in the hands of friends or others our heart lust for it. So do mine. And hence i fel and failed in 10.

HOW CAN I BE SAVED THEN?
I am all filthy and not holy,definitely not. Then what is my life all about then?  Am i going to carried straight  away to the hell?  If that it so, then there will be no reason for me to called as a believer of God and a Christian. The only way out, is a pure heart and filth less blood. And there is only person who can save me. And he is the son of man and son of God . And my ransom. He is none other than the saviour JESUS CHRIST. He died on the Cross for my sins and cleared my way all out of those sins. And now i have to praise Him and be watchful of at least falling short in the glory.

Are We Inviting Sin?

This is the newsletter I got in my mailbox and the devotional one. This is the best mail I got in these days and it grabbed my attention all at once after reading this. This is the crosswalk.com newsletter. All the credit goes to it's publisher, but I want to bring it here because of the reality it got. So close to the lives and able to change the lives. Below is the post__ Bar the Gates! Romans 6:13 Do not go on presenting the members of your body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God as those alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. John Bunyan, one of history's greatest Christian authors, wrote the story of a fierce battle to take control of a city from its rightful ruler.  This famous allegory, Bunyan's second most popular work, is entitled The Holy War. His depiction of the human soul is a city, Mansoul,  with five gates: Ear Gate, Eye Gate, Nose Gate, Feel Gate, and Mouth Gate. The enemy o...

What does beauty refer to? In terms of both inner and outer.

Greetings to you in the Holy name of Jesus Christ. Today I wish to write about the beauty both that of our spiritual beauty and our flesh. Many people think that looking ugly or pale is a sign of huge suffering and they are fighting battles behind. Maybe true, but what kind of battles are they talking about here? If a person is sick, he/she looks tired and ugly. This is the health issue, other side of looking ugly is the genetic problem. I would like to note here that, am not talking about those who are with the above qualities. And I quote none of us are ugly because we all are made in the figure of God. Thinking of the beauty is a different one in different cases. And here, especially I am writing for those youngsters who are always interestedly seek the beauty. And this is related to the category of marital status. And let's get into the point directly. In the above verse, it is cleanly shows that our body is the temple, it needs to be pure. This is a very logi...

It is the time for me to realize

My son, be attentive to my words; incline your ear to my sayings.  Let them not escape from your sight; keep them within your heart.  For they are life to those who find them, and healing to all their flesh. Proverbs 4:20-22 ESV For me, I thought health isn't the biggest issue to deal with when I got all at fingertips. It is a foolish belief in which I lived for so long time. Even am an asthma patient and a hypertension dealer a regular host of cold, I neglected the health care and I acted like am invincible. Health is the only reason by which we can survive and withstand against any problems and stop withering. We all set to face the unhealthy, when it is physical, we can feel a lot pain. As the above verse says, I need to be good to hear the word and ready to receive the healing. What I learnt on my own, being unhealthy is__ I can't concentrate on the word of God and can't realize the true blessings. This sickness made my mind to lose the grasping power of good...
