What Self-Control Is Not!



Ezekiel 18:4-16, Self-control is not bullying  others.
Micah 2:2, Self-control is not defrauding others.   Exodus 20:3 Self-control is not worshiping false idols and gods.
Exodus 20:4, Self-control is not making false gods to worship, or putting other "things" before you do GOD (people, homes, cars...)
Exodus 20:7, Self-control is not using the LORD GOD's Name (Jesus Christ's Name as well) in vain. (Cursing)
Exodus 20:8, Self-control is not forgetting to keep the Sabbath Holy.
Exodus 20:12, Self-control is not dishonoring your parents.
Exodus 20:13, Self-control is not murdering others (even wishing others were dead!)
Exodus 20:14, Self-control is not committing adultery. (Including sex before marriage. It will be adultery in the past to whom you marry in the future!)
Exodus 20:15, Self-control is not stealing. (Even for self preservation. If you truly know Christ as your savior, He will provide for you.)
Exodus 20:16, Self-control is not lying. (This also includes "half-truths.")
Exodus 20:17, Self-control is not lusting for what others have.

If you notice the last 10 listings have to do with the 10 commandments given to Moses on Mt. Sinai.
