Christians may not seek to try to get God do their bidding or seek to exalt themselves over God.
God requires that all people, especially his children, treat anything that is attached him with honor and respect.

What the Lord requires in worship can be broken into two categories - principles and elements.
The Second Commandment requires that we offer worship to God that he likes, that is in accord with his instructions to us in Scripture, not adding or taking away from those instructions.
The First Commandment forbids us to deny him as the one true God and worship anything else along with God.
Because there is only one true God, we must worship him alone and call others to do the same.
We are required to obey God because he made us and the fact that he has Redeemed us only increases that obligation.
The Ten Commandments can be summed up in the command to love God with all your heart, which, if done, means you will also love your neighbor as well.
The Ten Commandments summarize for us the Moral Law of God which was given at creation and continues to be of use to us, even after the fall.
The Moral Law is the Covenant of Works which required perfect and personal obedience and promised life for those who obey and threatened death for those who disobeyed.
God holds us accountable to obey all that he tells us in his word and nothing more.
On the Last Day, God’s people are publicly proclaimed to be innocent and rewarded with heaven, where they fulfill their created purpose.
When you die, your soul and body are separated, your soul going to heaven and your body resting in the grave until the Last Day.
There are three benefits which accompany or flow from justification and adoption and two benefits which accompany or flow from sanctification.
Sanctification is a long and slow process where God changes you to be more and more like him.
The Bible uses adoption to describ the reality that we have the rights of sons of God, namely to ask for help, receive discipline and inherit his kingdom.
