To love the Lord God with all our heart, soul, and strength. | |
To love one's neighbor as oneself. | |
Not to kill. | |
Not to commit adultery. | |
Not to steal. | |
Not to covet. | |
Not to bear false witness. | |
To respect all men. | |
Not to do to another what one would not have done to oneself. | |
To deny oneself in order to follow Christ. | |
To chastise the body. | |
Not to love pleasure. | |
To love fasting. | |
To comfort the poor. | |
To clothe the naked. | |
To visit the sick. | |
To bury the dead. | |
To aid those in trouble. | |
To comfort the sad. | |
To reject worldliness. | |
To love Christ above all else. | |
Not to become angry. | |
Not to show temper. | |
Not to keep deceit in one's heart. | |
Not to make a false peace. | |
Not to forsake charity. | |
Not to swear, for fear of committing perjury. | |
To speak the truth with heart and lips. |
