THE LAWS OF GOD - #10

The Tenth Commandment and Related Scriptures

God has set forth HIS Laws in the Holy Scriptures for ALL Mankind to know--and obey (Proverbs 14:34 and Isaiah 60:12)!

10. THOU (you) SHALL NOT COVET!

(Exodus 20:17 - Deuteronomy 5:21)...
The Devil is known as the THIEF (John 10:10). Consequently, his workers tend to be filled with inordinate lust to take away from others, what God has granted and given to them. In turn, this tends to drive them into conspiracies and plots for criminal activity (Proverbs 1:10-19). But, God's People are NOT to participate in any of this!

.A COMMON COVETOUSNESS - GREED (Avarice):

..1 WARNING AGAINST MATERIALISM:
while we (as Believers) are to yet be in this world, we are not to be of it. So, we must be sure that we do not get our focus on THINGS (Luke 12:15) nor on our physical needs and comforts (Matthew 6:25-34). Rather, keep God as your A #1 Priority!

..2 WARNING AGAINST GREED (Lust for Money):
while money is essential and vital as a tool to help us run our Society and meet our daily needs, it is NOT to become our focus--nor our goal in life, as that would expose us to works of the Devil (1 Timothy 6:6-10).

.B PLOTS AND CONSPIRACIES - SHADDY SCHEMES:

The Holy Scriptures plainly warn us not to participate in shady deals or schemes (plots or conspiracies) that rob people of what God has given them (Proverbs 1:10-19, 20:21, and 28:19-20), which all too often come about by our yielding to the inordinate power of covetousness (or avarice).
..1 AS ACCOMPLISHED:
if any plot or conspiracy should be discovered, before it was brought to pass, the conspirators are to be puhished just as if said crime had been committed! (Matthew 5:21-22 and 27-28) For, the power and the organization to bring forth such crime was clearly there, as well as the intention to do so--thus it is no longer just a wicked thought or temptation, but has been conceived into action and is now active MAJOR sin (James 1:14-15) However, also consider, Freedom of Thought, and the Right of the individual to be allowed to contemplate evil, under LAW-9.D.1 INTELLECTUAL FREEDOM under Liberty

..2 COVER-UP (Endangerment):
those who discover or become aware of a crime, but do not report it to authoities (or fail to take active steps against it), become accessories to whatever crime is involved--and are as guilty as those who participated directly in the crime, itself (Luke 17:3 and Acts 5:7-10).

C. HIGH CRIMES (Crimes against the Public, or Government):

Criminal activitiy that attacks the institutions, operations, officials, or foundations of the Realm, become a more serious class of crimes--High Crimes. For each God ordained government has the God given Right to Protect and Defend itself from internal corruption!
..1 GANGSTERISM - ORGANIZED CRIME:
the predetermined collection, direction (supervision), and use of criminal activities to, usually, gain unfair economic advantage over People, and/or bringing then into economic bondage to Powers that are not necessarily of the official government of the Realm, thus attempting to destroy the free commerce of the Realm's economy (Nehemiah 5:1-13).

..2 TREACHERY - SUBVERSION (Public Officials)
..3 HATE CRIMES GROUPS (Subversion):
normal Hate Crimes, either directed at Relam Officials or perpetuated by Realm Officials, is to be considered a serious High Crime! (See details under LAW-6.A.3 HATE CRIMES at the lessor crime of Murder.)

..4 REBELLION - ANARCHY (Resistance of Arrest):
to interfere with or obstruct an official of Our Realm in the performance of his assigned duties is a very sever act of rebellion (1 Kings 12:18-19; Romans 13:1-4). And to promote riot or mob violence and the breakdown of proper civil order is a very servere act of Anarchy (Acts 19:36-41). For both of these are serious High Crimes and shall be dealt with severly!

..5 REALM GUARD EMPOWERMENT (National Police):
therefore, in addition to the normal local (State, District, Provincial) Police, the whole Realm is entitled to greater Police protection as a proper defense against High Crimes. Consequently, under Court Order, and with the due presentation of probably cause or suspicious evidence, said officers may be given temporary suspensions of some of the Individual's Rights to Privacy, in order to accurately determine if High Crimes are, indeed, in progress. (See LAW-9.D.2 SEARCH AND SEIZURE under Liberty.)

(Included in this are Our TEMPLE GUARD (for investigating and dealing with the corruption of Realm Officials) AND Our WOLF GUARD (for investigating and dealing with Cultic Subversion of Our Realm)!)

D. TREASON AND HIGH TREASON:

Criminal activity that is allied with or gives aid to Forgeign Powers or Alien Governments in their attempts to destroy or conquer the Realm (or its Ruling Dynasty). For each God ordained government has the God given Right to Protect and Defend itself from Foreign Powers.
..1 TREASON (Crimes against the State or Nation):
every God ordained government has the legitimate God given Right to maintain its own government and border integrity from Foreign Powers or other governments (and from being subverted and taken over by them). Consequently, those who ally themselves with such enemies of the Realm that seek its downfall or destruction (or curtailment of function, or jurisdiction)--or give aid and assistances to such enemies, are not just involved in High Crimes, but have become fully Treasonous (1 Kings 16:20; 2 Kings 11:14; 2 Chronicles 23:13)

..2 SECRECY AND COUNTER-ESPIONAGE (Sabotage):
all God ordained governments have the legitimate God given Right to maintain confidentiality and secrecy over matters that are of importance to them and their security (2 Kings 6:8-13; 1 Chronicles 19:3)--see also LAW-9.A.2.b DIS-INFORMATION under Lying. Thus, breach of such official secrecy, spying (or collecting of information for enemy Powers), or acts of violence or destruction that interfere with such secrecy become more than just High Crimes, but are fully Treason (Numbers 13:16-17, 21:34; Joshua 2:1, 6:25; Judges 18:2, 14, 17; 2 Samuel 10:3; Galatians 2:4). (Also, see LAW-6.C.2 MILITARY INTELLIGENCE under Laws of Combat.)

..3 HIGH TREASON (Crimes against the Ruling Dynasty):
all God ordained Heads of State or Sovereign Rulers have the legitimate God given Right to maintain their rule, and to the safety of their persons, and of their Family. Consequently, crimes against the person of Our Realm's (Spiritual) Throne, or his immediate Family (especially those in direct line of succession) are not just Treasonous, but have become crimes that are High Treason! (2 Kings 11:1; 2 Chronicles 22:10). Moreover, included in this are acts that interfere with or obstruct the reproduction of fit heirs for the Realm's Throne (Genesis 12:15, 20:2; 1 Samuel 8:13, 16), or their legitimate succession (Numbers 27:8-11, 36:6-9) or their appointed position (Genesis 49:3-4; Deuteronomy 21:18-21).

..4 THRONE GUARD EMPOWERMENT:
therefore, in addition to the normal Realm Guard or National Police, Our Realm (and Spiritual Throne) is entitled to even greater Security and Police type protection and operations, as a proper defense against Crimes of Treason and High Treason (Proverbs 16:14 & 19:12; John 7:1, 19-20, 24).

EXTREME CASES (require sever methods):
Moreover, under the Throne's authority to Pardon, and with due presentation of probably cause or suspicious evidence by said officers, Royal Executioners may be given, by the direct executive order of the Ruler (Matthew 26:47, 55-57), temporary suspensions of some of the Individual's Rights to Privacy (or even security of their Person), in order to accurately determine if Crimes of Treason or High Treason are, indeed, in progress (See LAW-9.D.2 SEARCH AND SEIZURE under Liberty and LAW-6.C.2 MILITARY INTELLIGENCE under Laws of Combat.)--and to effectively and speedily neutralize their extreme threat to the Security of Our Realm (Matthew 18:34; Luke 16:23-25; Revelation 14:10 & 20:10).
