 * Telling the truth in court.

We have rules because they set limits, if we had not had laws, this world would be crazy. Without laws everyone would be free and people would be allowed to do anything they please.

These rules help us live safely because we need to be more discipline also we need these rules to guide us, without these rule the world would be a safer and more comfortable place.

Life without laws could, and would be hell. The world would be out of control.

There is a popular perception that the Ten Commandments are “the commandments” of Jewish religious tradition, but this is mistaken. The Hebrew scriptures contain 613 commandments in addition to these ten. This does not mean, however, that all commandments are equal. Jewish scholars have generally treated the Ten Commandments as basic or ideological foundations to the all the rest.

 Covenant: A contract drawn up be a deed ; an agreement

The 10 commandments helped the Jews live more faithfully to God. The rules were set out for them, it was as simple as, if they broke it, they got bad reputation. = The 10 Commandments = Commandments about God : 1,3 and 5. Commandments about how we treat others : 10,5, and 2
 * = 1 || “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me. ||
 * = 2 || “You shall not make for yourself a 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; 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, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My Commandments. ||
 * = 3 || “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain. ||
 * = 4 || “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. 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. ||
 * = 5 || “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you. ||

 * = 10 || “You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's.” ||

Challenge 2

Read "The Beatitudes" as found in Matthew 15: 1 - 12 The Beatitudes: Matthew 5: 1 - 12. Also, read through the two explanations of the Beatitudes found on the wiki's "Beatitudes" page (towards bottom of navigation bar...)

Discuss what you have read in your team.

As a team, construct a list of synonyms for the words "Blessed" and "Happy" - you can make two separate lists, upload a table, or do a word web or mind map - be creative! You can start with what is in your heads, and add to this using an online tool such as Synonyms online.

Explain what the Beatitudes mean. You should write in complete sentences and use some of your synonyms in your response. (Individually, what does each Beatitude mean? As a whole - What do they mean for us as Christians?...) (Type and label your own answer).

3. With this step you have two choices (you must do your own work here...):

read this passage "The Widow's Offering" and explain in a short paragraph which Beatitudes are illustrated through this passage: The parable of the Widow's Offering Mark 1: 41-44 Explanation of the parable (YOu will receive a C or less on this part of the criteria if you choose this option).

OR using your bibles, or searching online, locate a parable or other passage in the New Testament which illustrates one or more of the values from the Beatitudes. Try this as a starting point: List of parables. Write a short paragraph which summarises your parable and explain in your own words which Beatitudes are illustrated in your chosen parable. (for an A or B you must do this option).

4. What does it mean to be marginalised or outcast? As a team make a Venn Diagram or other chart which compares who the outcasts or marginalised were in Jesus' time, and who are those left on the margins of society today. (for example... a widow or a tax collector was an outcast in Jesus' time - today, it might be the homeless or refugees...)

5. Here again, you have two choices: (complete on your own and label)

read one of the scenarios about Human Rights and Children from Amnesty International linked here: Scenarios. Explain in a short paragraph how this relates to the Beatitudes today. (C response...)

OR think about society today - write your own description of a real life situation where someone is outcast or marginalised. Then, explain how this situation illustrates or relates to the beatitudes today.

A blessing of emotions and values that give us inspiration and encouragement.

What we have read is that God blessed us with a blessing.


 * __**Happy**__ || __**Blessed**__ ||
 * __Blessed__ || Holy ||
 * Bright || Sacred ||

 * Joy || Beautified ||
 * Joyful || Fortuned ||
 * Glad || Privileged ||
 * Cheerful || Lucky ||
 * Fell || Enviable ||
 * Experience || Happy ||
 * Overjoyed || Favoured ||

The beatitude mean that God gave us a blessing also we are building a positive relation with God also that the beatitudes emphasise trust happiness and humble.

The Parable explains that the woman, has donated all she has had. All she had to live on, whereas the rich people, they are still kind, but they aren’t donating as “much” as the poor widow because she is poor, but however still has the heart to donate money, her last pieces of possession. She, not rich still donated out of poverty. Beatitude meaning : she is kind in heart

4. You're so fragile I know Some things we cannot control I am so selfish it shows I just can't let go Tell me three little lies Everything is alright It tears me all up inside

[Chorus] If I talk to God I don't know if He's listening When I speak out loud I don't know if He's home I'm talking to myself ' Cause no one else is listening Stay another day And will it all go wrong? If I talk to God [ Lyrics fromI hate the words that I said They lay so still in my head I hope I never regret If I just let go Goodbye to time well spent I've got nothing to defend And is this really the end?

[Chorus]

And you can feel me when you fall When your backs against the wall And you know this town we live up in Is the loneliest of all And you can feel me when you're down And when your world turns upside down I know this place we're living in Is the loneliest of all

[Chorus]

I will be the colors in the rain When you're lying up and wide awake Hold on, hold on, I will for you I will be the truth inside your lies When you close your eyes at night I will, I will, hold on, for you
