ONE
3 "You shall have no other gods before Me.
TWO
4 "You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth;
5 you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,
6 but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.

11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

Jesus Expanded The Law MATTHEW 5:21-22 NKJ
21 "You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not murder,' and whoever murders will be in danger of the judgment.
22 "But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, 'Raca!' shall be in danger of the council. But whoever says, 'You fool!' shall be in danger of hell fire.MATTHEW 5:27-28 NKJ
27 "You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not commit adultery.'

43 "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'

Purpose Of The Law ROMANS 3:19 NKJ
19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.GALATIANS 3:24 NKJ
24 Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.There is one major problem with God's law: no human has ever been able to keep it. That means we are in big trouble. Without God's help, we have no hope.
ROMANS 3:23 NKJ
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,ROMANS 6:23 NKJ
23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.Saved By Faith In Christ Jesus EPHESIANS 2:8 NKJ
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,ROMANS 10:9-10 NKJ
9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For with the heart one believes to righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made to salvation.TITUS 3:4-7 NKJ
4 But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared,
5 not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,
6 whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior,
7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.GALATIANS 2:16 NKJ
16 "knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.
Live For Christ ROMANS 7:4 NKJ
4 Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another, even to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God.2 CORINTHIANS 5:15 NKJ
15 and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again.
