Part II: Questions about The Ten Commandments

64. Q. What does the tenth commandment teach us?
        A. To be content with what we have.

(Click through to read scriptural proof.)

Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.
But godliness with contentment is great gain, for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content.
Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
