It is the prayer which Christ taught His disciples.

The Lord's Prayer

"Our Father in heaven:

hallowed be your name;

your kingdom come,

your will be done

on earth as it is in heaven.

Give this day our daily bread.

Forgive us our sins,

as we forgive those who sinned against us.

And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from the Evil One."

Matthew 6:9-13 NIV


These commandments were given by God to Moses for the people of Israel.
They are as follows:

The Ten Commandments

1. "You shall have no other gods before me."

2. "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything
in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.
You shall not bow donw to them or worship them;
for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God,
punishing the children for the sin of the fathers
to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,
but showing love to thousand who love me
and keep my commandments.

3. "You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God,
for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses my name."

4. "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God.
On it you shall not work, neither you, nor your son or daughter,
nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals,
nor the alien within your gates.
For in the six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth,
the sea, and all that is in them,
but he rested on the seventh day.
Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.

5. "Honor your father and your mother,
so that you may live long in the land
the Lord your God is giving you.

6. "You shall not murder."

7. "You shall not commit adultery."

8. "You shall not steal."

9. "You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor."

10. "You shall not covet your neighbor's house.
You shall not covet your neighbor's wife,
or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey,
or anything that belongs to your neighbor."

Exodus 20:3-17 NIV



This is the psalm of David.

Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall lack nothing.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.

Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow
of death.
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and love will
follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of
the Lord forever.

Psalm 23:1-6 NIV



They are the blessings which Christ pronounced
upon the people of His kingdom.

The Beatitudes

1. "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."

2. "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted."

3. "Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth."

4. "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled."

5. "Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy."

6. "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God."

7. "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God."

8. "Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."

Matthew 5:3-10 NIV


This is Paul's description of love.

Love

Love is patient,
love is kind.
It does not envy,
it does not boast,
it is not proud.
It is not rude,
it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.

Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes,
always perseveres.

Love never fails....

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 NIV
