Like the one dude said up there, we already have 10 commandments, and that is good enough. But, I would like to advance that thought a bit, and actually make it absolute. The 10 Commandments perfectly encompass every single sin that is possible for mankind to commit. There is nothing you can do to offend God that isn't covered in his commands. The 10 Commandments are summed up in Luke 10:27, "He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ ; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ ” The first 4 commands govern our relationship w/ God, and the final 6 commands govern our relationship w/ people. Throw anything by me, I'll promise to fit the wrong into one of the commandment categories. Thanks for listening. I would like to advance that thought a bit, and actually make it absolute.

Apparently selling one's daughter into slavery not only isn't a sin but it is a biblically regulated practice (Exodus 21:7) |
