Jammu Malachi wrote: To suggest that truth and righteousness can only be known through written materials, is to say that truth and righteousness are NOT innately fashioned to our being. God created us all, and has extended those qualities to us all which are forthcoming through birth. Any written law of God is only to remind us of his law, lest we forget. They are not, however, meant to be addressed as a dictate or rule! Now, make up your mind. Either you were given the freedom of choice by God, or you were not! God is the Holy spirit. There is none other! |

Revelation 11:19 Then the temple of God was opened in Heaven, and the ark of His covenant, (The Ten Commandments), was seen in His Temple. And there were lightnings, noises, thunderings, an earthquake, and great hail.

Ten Commandments have Absolute Power
They are Jesus! They are God! They are the Holy Spirit!
No document in WORLD HISTORY has changed the world for the better than the Ten Commandments!John Adams wrote in his diary, February 22, 1756:
“Suppose a nation in some distant Region should take the Bible for their only law Book, and
every member should regulate his conduct by the precepts there exhibited! Every member would be
obliged in conscience, to temperance, frugality, and industry; to justice, kindness, and charity towards his fellow men; and to piety, love, and reverence toward Almighty God...What a Eutopia, what a
Paradise would this region be.”
34% of every quote by our founding fathers came straight from the Word of God, specifically the book of Deuteronomy where the Law of God is revealed.
The Commandments were referred to as Laws of God, Ordinances of God, Statutes of God, Divine Law, Revealed Law,
Holy Law, Book of Laws, Eternal Laws, Laws given to Moses on the Mount, the Decalogue, Foundation of Our Holy
Religion, Immutable Laws of Good and Evil, Government of God, etc., and are contained within the broader themes of
the religion, virtues, principles and morals of the Old and New Testaments

| Removing the Ten Commandments |
Yet, the Ten Commandments have come under attack Why did corrupt men want to remove the Ten Commandments from public view? Because, people might look at them and obey them!!
When People look at them and
obey the Ten Commandments
the People have
Absolute Power instead of the person with the most money.

In 1956, at the New York opening of the film The Ten Commandments, Cecil B. DeMille stated:
“The Ten Commandments are not the laws. They are THE LAW. Man has made 32 million laws since the Commandments were handed down to Moses on Mount Sinai more than three thousand
years ago, but he has never improved on God's law. The Ten Commandments are the principles by which man may live with God and man may live with man. They are the expressions of the mind of God for His creatures. They are the charter and guide of human liberty, for there can be no liberty without the law....
“What I hope for our production of The Ten Commandments is that those who see it shall
come from the theater not only entertained and filled with the sight of a big spectacle, but filled with
the spirit of truth. That it will bring to its audience a better understanding of the real meaning of this
pattern of life that God has set down for us to follow.”
Most people are "good people," who want to do the right thing, who want to obey the Ten Commandments. The problem is, there are some who don't and because of this, cause other people to sin and hurt others. Some people really don't care if they lie, or cheat, or steal...
GOOD NEWS!!!
The Ten Commandments has the power to convict, heal, restore, deliver and set people free! They have "absolute" Power!
It is the only power in the Universe that cannot and will never be corrupt.
The Power of the Ten Commandments cannot hurt anyone for they are "Holy", "Pure", "Clean".
They cannot defile a "mind", soul. The Ten Commandments are kept in the Holy of Holies,
The Ten Commandments as written in the book of Exodus are the power of God, the Power of the Ark of the Covenant.

GOD PROMISES TO TAKE CARE OF THOSE WHO KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS!
In the Old Testament of the Hebrews, or the Old agreement God had with the Hebrews, is God's promise that He would take care of them, lead them, guide them, provide for them, protect them, keep them in good health and bless them as long as the obeyed the Ten Commandments. God called upon Solomon the son of David to build a temple and in the most sacred place was the Ark of the Ten Commandments. The Agreement between God and the Hebrews.
“The Hebrews have done more to civilize men than any other nation....[God] ordered the
Jews to preserve and propagate to all mankind the doctrine of a Supreme, Intelligent, Wise, Almighty
Sovereign of the Universe....[which is] to be the great essential principle of morality, and
consequently all civilization.”
John Adams referring to the God of the Ten Commandments which were given to Moses, he wrote to Judge F.A. Van der Kemp,
February 16, 1809
When we hear of the "Laws of Nature and Nature's God..." in the Declaration of Independence...
“If there is anything in my thoughts or style to commend, the credit is due to my parents for
instilling in me an early love of the Scriptures. If we abide by the principles taught in the Bible, our
country will go on prospering and to prosper; If we and our posterity shall be true to the Christian
religion, if we and they shall live always in the fear of God and shall respect His Commandments...we
may have the highest hopes of the future fortunes of our country;...
“But if we and our posterity neglect religious instruction and authority; violate the rules of
eternal justice, trifle with the injunctions of morality, and recklessly destroy the political constitution
which holds us together, no man can tell how sudden a catastrophe may overwhelm us and bury all
our glory in profound obscurity.”
The people tried to keep the covenant, the Ten Commandments, but just could not do it, sin had had too much power over them. When this happened they would be conquered by other people and enslaved.
God promised that one day he would send them a person to save them from sin's power over them. God promised a new and better covenant, a Covenant that would give them power, God's spirit would fill them and God would write the Ten Commandments on their hearts.
To translate "on their hearts," The Hebrew people will love the Ten Commandments and embrace them.
God promised the power of God's Spirit and the Absolute power of the Ten Commandments would be in the Hebrews; leading them, guiding them, protecting them, providing for them, because that's all they can think about. When the Hebrews love, worship, and adore the Ten Commandments constantly, Sin loses it's power over them.

Temple of the Most
High God.
God is now going to live in them instead of in the Ark of the Covenant, a man made temple. God made a human body. Through Jesus, each mind and heart is made clean and Holy. The Holy Spirit of God can only live within a Holy vessel, a Holy Body, a Holy Temple. The body healed by the indwelling of God in the person!
The indwelling of the Ten Commandments!
God is his laws. Jesus is the word, Jesus is the law of God so is the Holy Spirit.
Jesus Promises Another Helper
15 “If you love Me, keep My commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. 18 I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.
Indwelling of the Father and the Son
19 “A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also. 20 At that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. 21 He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.”
God has absolute power, when you see Jesus in you, you see the Ten Commandments! You can see the ansolute Power of the Ten Commandments!
Have you seen Jesus Today?

The Ark of the Covenant
10 “They shall make an ark of acacia wood. Two cubits and a half shall be its length, a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height. 11 You shall overlay it with pure gold, inside and outside shall you overlay it, and you shall make on it a molding of gold around it. 12 You shall cast four rings of gold for it and put them on its four feet, two rings on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it. 13 You shall make poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold. 14 And you shall put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark to carry the ark by them. 15 The poles shall remain in the rings of the ark; they shall not be taken from it. 16 And you shall put into the ark the testimony that I shall give you.
** The testimony, also known as the covenant, equals the two stone tablets which God wrote the Ten Commandments on.

requisitions,” which are undoubtedly implied references to keeping the Ten Commandments:
“As no truth is more clearly taught in the Volume of Inspiration, nor any more fully
demonstrated by the experience of all ages, than that a deep sense and a due acknowledgment of the
growing providence of a Supreme Being and of the accountableness of men to Him as the searcher of
hearts and righteous distributer of rewards and punishments are conducive equally to the happiness
and rectitude of individuals and to the well-being of communities;
“As it is also most reasonable in itself that men who are made capable of social acts and
relations, who owe their improvements to the social state, and who derive their enjoyments from it,
should, as a society, make their acknowledgments of dependence and obligation to Him who hath
endowed them with these capacities and elevated them in the scale of existence by these distinctions;
“As it is likewise a plain dictate of duty and a strong sentiment of nature that in
circumstances of great urgency and seasons on imminent danger earnest and particular supplications
should be made to Him who is able to defend or to destroy;
“As, moreover, the most precious interests of the people of the United States are still held in
jeopardy by the hostile designs and insidious acts of a foreign nation, as well as by the dissemination
3among them of those principles, subversive to the foundations of all religious, moral, and social
obligations, that have produced incalculable mischief and misery in other countries;
“And as, in fine, the observance of special seasons for public religious solemnities is happily
calculated to avert the evils which we ought to deprecate, and to excite to the performance of the
duties which we ought to discharge, by calling and fixing the attention of the people at large to the
momentous truths already recited, by affording opportunity to teach and inculcate them by animating
devotion and giving to it the character of a national act:
“For these reasons I have thought proper to recommend, and I hereby recommend
accordingly, that Thursday, the twenty-fifth day of April next, be observed throughout the United
States of America as a day of solemn humiliation, fasting, and prayer;
“That the citizens on that day abstain, as far as may be, from their secular occupation, and
devote the time to the sacred duties of religion, in public and in private;
“That they call to mind our numerous offenses against the Most High God, confess them
before Him with the sincerest penitence, implore His pardoning mercy, through the Great Mediator
and Redeemer, for our past transgressions, and that through the grace of His Holy Spirit, we may be
disposed and enabled to yield a more suitable obedience to His righteous requisitions in time to come;
“That He would interpose to arrest the progress of that impiety and licentiousness in
principle and practice so offensive to Himself and so ruinous to mankind;
“That He would make us deeply sensible that "righteousness exalteth a nation but sin is a
reproach to any people"[Proverbs 14:34];
“That He would turn us from our transgressions and turn His displeasure from us;
“That He would withhold us from unreasonable discontent, from disunion, faction, sedition,
and insurrection;
“That He would preserve our country from the desolating sword;
“That He would save our cities and towns from a repetition of those awful pestilential
visitations under which they have lately suffered so severely, and that the health of our inhabitants
generally may be precious in His sight;
“That He would favor us with fruitful seasons and so bless the labors of the husbandman as
that there may be food in abundance for man and beast;
“That He would prosper our commerce, manufactures, and fisheries, and give success to the
people in all their lawful industry and enterprise;
“That He would smile on our colleges, academies, schools, and seminaries of learning, and
make them nurseries of sound science, morals, and religion;
“That He would bless all magistrates, from the highest to the lowest, give them the true spirit
of their station, make them a terror to evil doers and a praise to them that do well;
“That He would preside over the councils of the nation at this critical period, enlighten them
to a just discernment of the public interest, and save them from mistake, division, and discord;
“That He would make succeed our preparations for defense and bless our armaments by land
and sea;
“That He would put and end to the effusion of human blood and the accumulation of human
misery among the contending nations of the earth by disposing them to justice, to equity, to
benevolence, and to peace;
“And that He would extend the blessings of knowledge, of true liberty, and of pure and
undefiled religion throughout the world.
“And I do also recommend that with these acts of humiliation, penitence, and prayer, fervent
thanksgiving to the Author of All Good be united for the countless favors which He is still continuing
to the people of the United States, and which render their condition as a nation eminently happy when
compared with the lot of others. Given, etc.”11
