Catechism Reading:

The Sixth Commandment

You shall not commit adultery.

What does this mean?

We should fear and love God

so that we lead a sexually pure and decent life

in what we say and do,

and husband and wife love and honor each other.

The Seventh Commandment

You shall not steal.

What does this mean?

We should fear and love God

so that we do not take our neighbor's money or possessions,

or get them in any dishonest way,

but help him to improve and protect his possessions and income.

The Eighth Commandment

You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.

What does this mean?

We should fear and love God

that we may not deceitfully belie,

betray, slander, or defame our neighbor,

but defend him, [think and] speak well of him,

and put the best construction on everything.
