Hillbilly Ten Commandments

Some people in the world seem to have trouble with all those "shalts" and "shalt nots" in the Ten Commandments. Folks just aren't used to talking in those terms. So we translated them for you to make them easier to understand.


1.) Just one God. The God of the "Good" book.


2.) Put nothin before God. Any fella or gal, place or thin' that yer puttin more importin than Him? Stop.


3.) Watch yer mouth. Be holy and revere the Lord, yer Maker.


4.) Git yerself to Sunday meetin. Thankin' and givin glory.


5.) Honor yer Ma & Pa. God picked them, so love em and do what they say.


6.) No killin. Jesus even said, no hatin, fer its the same thig in yer heart.


7.) No foolin around with another fellers woman. Jesus said, 'don't be even thinkin about it."


8.) Don't take what ain't yers. That's lo down and ya wouldn't want folks takin yer stuff.


9.) No tellin' tales and gossipin'. Tell em straight and tell em all. Don't be addin anythin.


10.) Don't be hankerin for yer buddy's stuff. The "good' stuff is in heaven. Have a hankerin for that instead.



Now that's kinda plain and simple, don't ya think? Y'all have a nice day!


Blessin's, Brian

These simple Ten Commandments of God to mankind are the standard that we, as a global community need to read often, understand completely and trust, obey and follow faithfully. They are the foundational principals of a balanced, healthy, & peaceful society centered on loving God, loving our fellow man and ourselves through the "Golden Rule" of Matthew 7:12 "So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets."
