10 Commandments Summarized in Poem by Joseph Bates

1.
"No God but me thou shalt adore; 
2. No Image frame to bow before; 
3. My Holy Name take not in vain' 
4. My sacred Sabbath don't profane; 
5. To parents render due respect; 
6. All murder shun and malice check; 
7. From filth and whoredom base, abstain; 
8. From theft and all unlawful gain; 
9. False witness flee and slandering spite; 
10. Nor covet what's thy neighbor's right.
1st John 2:4 'He that saith I know Him and keep not His commandments is a LIAR and the truth is not in him.'
Joseph Bates
