Well, obviously, the ones referring to god have no meaning to me but shouldn't give you any problems.
The rest I don't seem to have any trouble wrestling with although I had good parents.
If I had the monster-like parents like some we're all aware of, I can't see how that makes any sense at all.
I don't even know how you guys can defend that one in some cases.
So, now, tell me what's so troublesome to you that you keep needing help ?
What do you consider sinning,jimmie?
The ten commandments or some of the dozens of things that get argued about over on the Christianity forum?
Sinning is anything that misses the mark of God, whether it be going over the speed limit or stealing, sin is sin as there are different price tags for those misdeeds here on Earth. Our values and morals start from home as they are taught to us by our parents. As kids we our taught what is right and wrong and punished when we don't mind our parents. When parents bring their children to church and raise them up in the way of the Lord, the moral compass is strengthened in one's children. As they grow older and accept Christ as their Savior they are convicted by the Holy Spirit and something as believers that does not leave us as His conviction is strong and sanctifies us from non-believers

Why? Are the commandments really so difficult to follow?
How much coveting can anyone do? Coveting is not possible when you are satisfied with your blessings.
Coveting is counterproductive behavior, too. If I want something and my neighbor has it, I borrow it. Same for the neighbor.
I do not understand the whole covet the husband and the wife thing either. It was covered in 7. Seems a bit redundant.
There is no reason to lie. The truth is easier to remember and most of time more interesting. The truth does not cause anxiety either.

I have never lied as an adult, and I have been an adult decades longer than a child. Any lie as a child was venial at best. I cannot even remember any of them.
No. I do not and have never coveted anything. I am capable of enjoying things and accomplishments not my own. I like when people are successful. The success of others does not threaten me, nor does it make me want what they have.
What have you coveted? I don't have a reference for it.

I don't believe you.
