There are a couple of the commandments in the bible out of the Ten Commandments that when you’re reading them, you’re thinking ‘thank God! at least, I know I can never be guilty of breaking this commandment!’. One of such commandments is the 6th commandment, ‘you shall not murder’. This commandment really doesn’t concern most of us because we have never, and we will never ever commit murder, right? But let’s find out what the word says.

We all have our ‘go-to’ person whenever we are in trouble and we need help. That one person or people that we trust to always have our back and never fail us. But do they have the capacity to always help us?

Many Christians are under the impression that they can choose to love or not to love other people. But I have never seen anywhere in the bible that tells me that loving other people is an option.

It is so easy to be critical and judgmental of other people and It’s so easy for us to see the mistakes and the short comings of others and we are quick to condemn them. But shouldn’t we correct people when they do the wrong things and is it wrong to speak the truth about other people?

Most of us have at one time or the other tried to fit in. From primary school to college, being one of the ‘cool kids’ is top priority and even as we get older, blending in with the crowd and being liked and accepted by others is very important to us.

But as Christians are we really meant to fit in with the world around us?

One advice we get all the time is ‘just be yourself’ which sounds great. However, the bible doesn’t encourage us to just be ‘ourselves’ so what does the bible tell us?

Proverbs‬ ‭16:18-19‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall. Better to be of a humble spirit with the lowly, Than to divide the spoil with the proud.”

Many times we have an over-bloated image of ourselves. So who are we really?
