[[The Church of Humans]] receives the '''Seven Commandments of Christ''' as a rule for human life.

Christ first gives the Great Two:

<blockquote>
'''You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.'''
</blockquote>

Christ also reiterates five commandments for human conduct:

<blockquote>
'''You know the commandments: Do not commit adultery. Do not murder. Do not steal. Do not bear false witness. Honor your father and mother.'''
</blockquote>

== The Rule of Love ==

The Seven Commandments are not a new law by which we condemn the world.

They are the boundary of human love.

They teach us to love God wholly, to love our neighbor as ourselves, and to do no harm by betrayal, violence, theft, false accusation, or contempt.

== Conduct, Not Condemnation ==

The commandments govern conduct.

They do not give anyone authority to condemn another human being.

Christ commands love, mercy, forgiveness, and restraint from judgment. Therefore, the Seven Commandments may not be used to create a priesthood, a court of accusation, or a hierarchy of holiness.

They are given for human life together.

== The Seven ==

=== 1. Love the Lord your God ===

To love God is to turn the whole person toward the source of life, truth, mercy, and peace.

This love is not merely belief, speech, ritual, or identity. It is the orientation of the heart, soul, strength, and mind toward God.

=== 2. Love your neighbor as yourself ===

To love your neighbor is to recognize another human being as one who is not beneath you.

The neighbor is not limited to tribe, nation, religion, family, agreement, or approval.

Love of neighbor is the commandment by which all human conduct is tested.

=== 3. Do not commit adultery ===

Do not betray covenant love.

Do not use intimacy to deceive, exploit, possess, or destroy.

=== 4. Do not murder ===

Do not take life.

Do not treat another human being as disposable.

=== 5. Do not steal ===

Do not take what belongs to another.

Do not use need, weakness, office, or advantage as permission to seize what is not yours.

=== 6. Do not bear false witness ===

Do not use speech to injure falsely.

Do not accuse falsely, slander, entrap, distort, or testify against another by deceit.

=== 7. Honor your father and mother ===

Do not despise the human chain through which life came to you.

Honor your ancestors.
