I dislike when suppose christians make plaques quoteing the supposed ten commandments.
Tho shall not Kill???? Tho shall not lie????
Everytime I read one of those plaques, I think to myself, Boy do they need to really read the bible for themselfs and see what God really said in His ten commandments, and the rest of the bible.

What would you consider the worst sin you could commit? Adultery? Stealing? Murder? You might be surprised by the answer the Bible gives.
The worst sin—and the one with the most far-reaching consequences—is this: to refuse to believe in Jesus Christ.

So if a kid makes up an excuse for not doing his homework, that's a worse sin than someone murdering someone else? What about someone who is lying to save another person's life?
Man's version of God's 9th commandment,
Thou shall not lie.
God's version of God's 9th commandment,
Thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor. (meaning anyone.)
Big difference in the two versions.
Of course lying is usually a sin, But not always. Be as honest as possible as much as you can. Unless it would harm a inocent person, including youself if you're inocent, and it needs to be done.
As King David pretented he was completely insane once when captured, so they would not kill him.
And they didn't kill him because of that. Good plan I would say.
And God never said a thing.
Many people who claim to be christian think, and will tell you that all sins are as bad as one another.
They would say that lying is as bad as murder.
Our common sense that God gave us, tells us this is not true.
Also in the old testament there are different penaltys for different sins. The harsher penaltys for the worse sins.
If all sins were as bad as one another, God would have given the same penalty for all sins in the old testament, sense they are all the same.
But they are not. Some are worse than others.
It's true that both lying and murder are sin.
But the only thing they have that are equal to each other, are that they both can be forgiven by God threw Jesus just as much as each other.

A Bible concordance.
It's used for studying the bible.

But The Strong's Exhaustive Concordance, has just about all you mentioned.
And if my computer crashes, or I lose power it's all still there.
And the bible school I went to made us all get, all of the books needed to study by hand, (so to speak).
But yes as of now, and for the last 15 years or so, the internet is the fastest,and best, and easyist way to store the most imformation. 🙂
