I’d first like to say thanks to all who signed up for this year’s Young BUCKS Club. A total of 15 names were submitted with 12 participants being accepted. The program is a lot of fun for the youth and I pray that all are benefited and blessed in a number of ways.
The learning material and objectives for qualification week were the 2 Great Commandments that Jesus spelled out for us and the 10 Commandments we received from God through Moses. The 2 Great Commandments are found in Matthew 22:37-39, Mark 12:29-31, and Luke 10:27 and are as follows:
1st and Greatest Commandment:
“Love the LORD your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength.”
2nd Greatest Commandment:
“Love your neighbor as yourself”
Jesus said that all the Law (including the 10 Commandments) is summed up with the 2 great commands above. Below are the 10 Commandments as the Young BUCKS will learn them. In parenthesis ( ) is the short version that will be acceptable for test purposes. Note: Reference the third commandment, God is called upon by various names (e.g. Yahweh, Jehovah, Yeshua, Jesus).
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
1. God comes first in your life. Put nothing else above Him (God is #1)
2. Never give something the place in your heart only God should have (No Idols)
3. Only use God’s name for good purposes (Don’t misuse God’s name)
4. Set aside one day a week to rest and focus on the LORD (Honor the Sabbath)
5. Respect and obey your father and mother (Honor your parents)
6. Never murder (Do not kill)
7. Do not take another man’s wife (Don’t commit adultery)
8. Do not steal
9. Do not lie about someone or for someone (No false testimony)
10. Don’t lust after something that belongs to someone else (Don’t covet)
