=Ika-8 Utos: Huwag Kang Magnanakaw=

*Exodus 20:15
"15 "You shall not steal."

Stealing
-taking away of something that is not yours;
-very common sin;
-most recognized as wrong;

Communist System
-the state owns the property.

Capitalist System
-individual owns the property.

"God owns everything."

*Psalms 24:1
"1 The earth is the LORD's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it;"

*John 1:1
"1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

*Luke 10:29-30
29 But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?"
"30 In reply Jesus said: "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead.

Robbers: what is yours is mine.
-Extortion
-Hold up
-Tax Evasion
-Plagiarism

*Proverbs 28:8
"8 He who increases his wealth by exorbitant interest amasses it for another, who will be kind to the poor.

*Malachi 3:8
"8 "Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. "But you ask, 'How do we rob you?' "In tithes and offerings.

*Leviticus 27:30
"30 " 'A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the LORD; it is holy to the LORD.

*Luke 10:30
"...They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead."

*John 10:10
"10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full"

"Luke 10:31-32
"31 A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side.
32 So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.

Not so obvious: what is mine, is mine.

*Proverbs 3:27-28
"27 Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act.
28 Do not say to your neighbor, "Come back later; I'll give it tomorrow"-- when you now have it with you."

Consequences of Stealing:
1. It brings shame and disgrace to the Thief.
2. It deprives another of his due.
3. You will lose what you gained.

*Proverbs 13:11
"11 Dishonest money dwindles away, but he who gathers money little by little makes it grow."

4. It leads to deception, lies and more sins.
5. It is a wrath of God.

*Luke 10:33-35
"33 But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him.
34 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, took him to an inn and took care of him.
35 The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. 'Look after him,' he said, 'and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.'

Good Samaritan: what is mine is yours.

*Ephesians 4:28
"28 He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with his own hands, that he may have something to share with those in need.
