The Ten Commandments, sentence 7
The first commandment says to worship only the one true God; Christians believe nothing should take his place, not money, fame or things, and because loving God comes first, it shapes how they keep all the others.
Who acts: first commandment, Christians, nothing, place, Commandments · What happens: say, worship, believe, take, loving, come · To what, where: one true God, place, God, others · Speech: someone speaks here
