Commandments

"If you love me, you will obey my commands." John 14:15

1. You must not have any other God before me.
2. You must not make for yourself an idol of any kind or an image of anything in the heavens or on the earth or in the sea.
3. You must not misuse the name of the Lord your God.
4. Remember to observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
5. Honor your father and mother.
6. You must not murder.
7. You must not commit adultery.
8. You must not steal.
9. You must not testify falsely against your neighbor.
10. You must not covet your neighbor's house.

Are there only 10 commandments? Could the following be considered commands as well?

- "Pray for those who persecute you!" Matthew 5:44

- "Don't do your good deeds publicly, to be admired by others, for you will lose your reward from your Father in heaven." Matthew 6:1

- "So don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries." Matthew 6:34

- "Do not judge others, and you will not be judged." Matthew 7:1

- "Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you." Matthew 7:12

- "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28

- "...You must turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross, and follow me..." Matthew 16:24

- "...Love your neighbor as yourself." Matthew 19:18

I'm not an expert by any means but I like to think there are more than just 10 commandments.
