YOU SHALL NOT STEAL.
What Does This Mean?
We should fear and love God so that we do not take our neighbor’s money or possessions, or get them in any dishonest way, but help him to improve and protect his possessions and income.
The Central Thought
God created us to look after the earthly gifts that He has given to our neighbors for their life and well-being.
- What kinds of things do all people on earth need for their well-being?
- What are some ways that I can help to protect and care for the earthly goods of my neighbor?
