Comparing Ten Commandments And The Sermon On The Mount

The 10 Commandments were the acts of what not to do according to the Bible. They were stated by God on Mount Sinai to the people of Israel after releasing them from slavery. These Commandments are known to be divine because God stated them himself, in fact he wrote them with his fingers onto a stone tablet which left a powerful meaning. They are also known as a positive law because there is no room for ambiguity. Throughout Exodus 20 Moses restates God’s words of the Commandments to explain them. On the other hand, the Beatitudes were 8 blessings created by Jesus in the Sermon. They were Jesus’s sacred values that he taught to the people that followed and walked with him during his journey. These blessings were at the heart of his teaching.

My opinion the ten commandment was to display us how negligent we are and how severely in need of a savior we are. The Ten Commandments were never given as a set of guidelines to live by.

The bible is one of the most printed book of all time and there is roughly about 5 billion bibles in our world today.(guinnessworldrecords.com) Most of the information in the bible can be related to each other, because this book is about the teaching of one man, Jesus, who taught humanity to love each other and to keep peace in this world.

Divine command theory is a theory that believes that what is willed by God is morally right. Another portion of this is that in order for a belief to be morally right a knowledge of God is required. This knowledge of God being required can be seen as a weakness due to atheists and agnostics not being able to be morally right. Some of the more notable philosophers that brought about various forms of divine commandment Theory have been Saint Augustine, John Calvin, and William of ockham. A prime example of divine command theory in modern practice is The Ten Commandments among Christians. The Ten Commandments are from the Old Testament in the Bible and are a basic set of rules to follow. This basic set of rules that was set forth by the divine is commonly what this theory is based on.
