The Ten Commandments and Eight Beatitudes

Honour your Father and Mother

a.This commandment applies to my life beacuse sometimes it is hard to be respectful to my parents. Sometimes we dont get along, or dont agree on the same things which makes it hard for me not to talk back and be respectful. I always try to be respectful because I know how much they do for me, but we sometimes have different views on things which causes fighting, and a lack of respect, even though it is not intended. I try my best to follow this commandment because it is important to show my parents how much I appreciate every thing they do for me.

c. This commandment affects my choices because i always want to make my parents proud, and do what my parents think is right. I always try to base my decisions on what my parents would want me to do, because I know if I choose the wrong decision my parents would be disappointed with me, and it can cause lack of respect in our relationship. To be happy I need to have a strong relationship with my parents, so I always try to be respectful towards them because I know that I cant be happy without a good relationship with my parents. This commandment effects my spiritual growth because if i honour my father and mother God will be proud and happy. It also creates a closer relationship to God because he knows that i try my hardest to be respectful to my parents, and follow this commandment.

An article in a magazine entitled "Honor Your Father and Mother" talks about all different ways that you can honor your parents. It gives examples and suggestions and helps explain what the commandment means and why it is important.

d. One beatitude that relates to this commandment is "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the world". This beatitude relates to this commandment because it states to NOT use the Lords name in vain, and being meek means to not use verbal violence to get your way, and to be kind and do whats right. By being a meek person you are respecting God and everything he has done for us.

b. One virtue that needs to be developed in order to be faithful to this commandment is respect for creation. Without being respectful to Gods creation you cannot b faithful to this commandment. This is because all of Gods creations deserve to be treated with respect, and when you kill things like bugs, animals, or even people it is going against this commandment.

You shall not bear false witness

a. This commandment relates to my life because I lie sometimes. I think this commandment is really important because lying is something that can harm relationships with others and the consequences can harm your life in a negative way. I feel like it is very important to respect this commandment because on a few occasions people have lied to me and it really can harm your relationship with others.

You Shall Not Kill

d. A beatitude that relates to this commandment is "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven". This beatitude relates to this commandment because if you admit to a lie then you are poor in spirit. This beatitude is very important because admitting to something can sometimes be hard.

c. This commandment affects my my choices because I know how it feels to lie, and to be lied to and it doesnt feel very nice. This encourages me to not lie as often, also because I know the consequences can be bad. This commandment affects my search for happiness because if i know that I tell the truth it makes me feel good about myself. It affects my spiritual growth because when you dont lie God will be proud because even though it might be hard to tell the truth sometimes, you still chose the right thing to do.

b. One virtue that you have to develop in order to be faithful to this commandment is honesty. God always wants us to do the right thing and be honest when we are lying about something. Even though we know lying is the wrong thing to do we sometimes do it anyways, because we know the consequences of telling the truth can be bad. We are always encouraged to tell the truth because it results to trust in some relationships, even though the truth can sometimes hurt.

a. This commandment applies to my life because even though I dont kill human beings, i still can kill small things like bugs and plants. This commandment doesnt only apply to killing humans, it applies to killing all of Gods creations. I think this commandment is very important because it is bad to kill anything that God has created

d. A beatitude that I think relates to this commandment is "blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven". This beatitude relates to this commandment because the poor in spirit always give people second chances even thought they know what they did was wrong. Even though people might steal the poor in spirit always give them a second chance.

b. I think one of the most important virtues that has to be developed in order to stay faithful to this commandment is wise judgement. Wise judgement is to be able to figure out what is the right thing to do, and knowing the consequences if you choose the wrong option. If you dont know that stealing is wrong, and u dont know the consequences then how can you know what is the right decision or not. If you cant realize that stealing is wrong then you do not portray the virtue wise judgement very well

An article called "thou shall not steal" talks about why you souldnt steal and all the consequences that lead to theft. This article gives an in depth explanation on why betraying this commandment is bad, and gives some exaples of theft stories. e

You shall not steal

a. This commandment applies to my life because sometimes you are tempted to steal things from others. Even if it is something small like stealing your friends pencil, or taking someones answers, it is still wrong and against Gods teachings. This commandment is very important because I feel, if people go against this commandment it can cause other major things like problems in your relationships with others, and even how you are seen as a person.

b. I think the main virtues that need to be developed in order to be faithful to this commandment are love and respect. To honour your father and mother you have to love them and care about them. Being able to make sacrifices for them is a big part of this virtue, this is because if you show that you love them and will do anything for them it shows that you care for them and everything they have done for you. Respect is a very important virtue in honouring your mother and father because if you dont respect your parents, then your relationship will have lots of fighting and arguments. I think the main components to a good relationship is respect. Without respecting ot loving your parents I find it impossible to honour them.

d. One beatitude that connects to this commandment is "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God". This beatitude connects to this commandment because to be pure in heart means to be kind and committed to your relationships with others no matter what happens. if someone is pure in heart they usually respect there parents no matter what they do, or fights they get in.
