Just as the Israelites felt so many thousands of years ago, when they fled from Egypt, there appears to be no order in the World. It is in situations like these that people tend to create their own substitutes on which to lean and depend.
The Second Commandment
"THOU SHALT NOT MAKE UNTO THEE ANY GRAVEN IMAGE, OR ANY LIKENESS OF ANYTHING THAT IS IN HEAVEN ABOVE, OR THAT IS IN THE EARTH BENEATH, OR THAT IS IN THE WATER UNDER THE EARTH. THOU SHALT NOT BOW DOWN THYSELF TO THEM, NOR SERVE THEM: FOR I THE LORD THEY GOD AM A JEALOUS GOD, VISITING THE INIQUITY OF THE FATHER UPON THE CHILDREN UNTO THE THIRD AND FOURTH GENERATION OF THEM THAT HATE ME, AND SHOWING MERCY UNTO THOUSANDS OF THEM THAT LOVE ME, AND KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS".This commandment clearly states that because you are not capable of understanding the true God, you should not create false gods, false idols. You should not elevate any idol to the position of God. You should not take any lesser beings, even though they may be more evolved than yourselves, and make them into gods as a means of satisfying your own lost egos. Living in such vastness, not only of Earth but also of space, it is so easy for you to feel lost. Even today events in the World appear to be overtaking you. There is much evil, There is much violence. The ordinary person in the street would appear to have no control over the everyday happenings of their life.
Just as the Israilites felt so many thousands of years ago, when they fled from Egypt, there appears to be no order in the World. It is in situations like these that people tend to cling to false ideologies, to false gods, to create their own substitutes on which to lean and depend, be it a religious god or be it money, power, influence, land or any other material god: they are both images created by Humanity as its idea of God. They in no way reflect the true greatness of your Creator, for that you cannot comprehend.

A Warning
This second commandment is, then, a warning to you not to place your faith in false gods and to be aware that, regardless of your point of consciousness, at every stage of your evolution you will create a "God", a "God" which you can just comprehend. To some it may be a saint, a wise man, a guru, a saviour of the people, even a Master on a higher plane of life. Have you ever stopped to consider why you need a "God"?? You may think it a harsh, an irreligious thing to say but, truly, you do not need a "God". Certainly you must try to be aware of the true God and you must strive to achieve His Plan for this Earth, but that is a very different thing.
No God of Punishment
In this commandment there is a reference to a God who will punish: "FOR I THE LORD THEY GOD AM A JEALOUS GOD..." The implication is that if you do not follow the wishes of that God then He will descend upon you and will punish you unto the third and fourth generation. The true God of this Earth, however, is not a God of punishment. He, and the Beings who control, guide and help this Earth, have long since progressed beyond the level of meting out punishment, for there is no point in punishing a being who does not understand. The true God of this Earth is a God of love, a God of help, a God of wisdom, a God of impartiality.
You, on the Earth, have been given the divine gift of free choice to advance along your chosen paths. As you progress you will, understandable, err, but when you err the Law of this Earth is not that God will punish you but rather that you will learn through your mistakes, for by your actions now you are sowing the seeds which will come to fruition in the future. What you are doing now -- the way you treat your country, the way you treat your fellow human beings, the way you treat the Kingdoms of this Earth -- will affect not only you but also the beings who are to incarnate after you. You pollute this Earth not only for yourselves but also for your children and for your children´s children, and the karma for this will have to be repaid in the many, many lives you have yet to live.
The Third Commandment
"THOU SHALT NOT TAKE THE NAME OF THE LORD THY GOD IN VAIN; FOR THE LORD WILL NOT HOLD HIM GUILTLESS THAT TAKETH HIS NAME IN VAIN".This is a fault which is just as prevalent today as it was so many thousands of years ago, for Humanity is still continually motivating its actions on this Earth according to its false gods. Humanity creates its own religions. It takes the examples of the great Masters who have incarnated on this Earth, the words they have spoken, the way of life they have demonstrated, and interprets them to justify its own actions. The Churches rephrase the words of the great Masters, invent motivations for their lives and create religions which Humanity then follows; and Humanity, believing that it is following the Will of God, obeys the commandments of the Churches and not the commandments of God.
Misinterpretations
In order to give meaning and security to their lives most people need to create a god, and they will therefore turn to any plausible god which is put before them by the priests or elders of the Age. It is so easy to lead a person astray in the name of their God. Just as there was no true religion so many thousands of years ago when Moses was given these commandments, so there is no true religion in the World today. Every religion misinterprets or changes the meanings, the events, the teachings of the great Master who have come on this Earth, and asks its members to follow not God but the Church´s idea of God.
Be aware that many people will do many manner of things in the name of their "God". They will say that "God" is on their side, that "God" helps them, that "God" leads them, that "God" inspires them, and in the name of their "God" they will commit evil all over this World. They will exploit, abuse and even kill their fellow human beings in the name of their "God". They will abuse the Kingdoms of Matter on this Earth. They will do all this for the glory of their "God", a "God" who, truly, does not exist except in their own minds. Beware, therefore, of any person who preaches to you of "God" for it will be only of his or her idea of God. There is only one God Who is in existence at this moment in time for each of you, and that is your own consciousness.
