The fear of God will keep me from sinning
Exodus 20:18-26
The Load speak to Moses and Israelite, Israelite saw the thunder and lighting, mountain in smoke and heard the trumpet.
Israelite afraid and prefer Moses speak to them and they will listen.

Israelite have seen God, Do not make any gods to be alongside me; do not make for yourselves god of silver of gods of gold.
Wherever I cause my name to be honored, I will come to you and bless you.
Why?
Fear God will let us keep away from sinning. If we don't fear god then we might do evil things.
God has not show in any shape to be imagined so we can't do any gods or idol to worship. God is a spirit，is a living God. But God is a light, who gives us love and shinning my way.
Although similar in form to other ancient law-codes of Western Asia. the Jewish code has several distinctive features:
1)The whole code rests on the authority of God, not of a king.
2)There is no division between civil and religious law.
3)There is one law for all, whatever a person's status. Regulations protecting the weak and helpless are particularly striking.
4)A high view of human life is demonstrated by fixed, limited penalties-- one crime, one punishment.
How?
Fear the Load is basic altitude to the God. I am fear God
Where Honor God's name, God will be with me. How wonderful promise. I hope I can do everything can let God's name be honored. Every if it isn't honor God then I won't do it.

God is holy with power and Love
Exodus 19:1-25
On the very day- they came to the desert of Sinai, in the third month after Israelite left Egypt.

Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine, you will be for me a kingdom of priest and a holy nation. There are the words you are to speak to the Israelite"
The people all responded together, "we will do everything the Load has said"
The Load said to Moses, "I am going to come to you in a dense cloud, so that the people will hear me speaking with you and will always put their trust in you."
people of Israel have to consecrate them today and tomorrow, and wash their clothes and ready by the third day. Abstain from sexual relations.
Load came to Sinai mountain in the sight of all the people, no one can go up to the mountain or touch the foot of it. Whether man or animal , he shall not be permitted ti love.
