The three rules I chose were: Honor your father and mother, love one another, and put God first.
Yes, I think these rules are to protect me.Sometimes I have a hard time following these rules. The benefits of following these rules are that I will live long on this Earth for obeying my mother and father(Exodus 20:12"Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you.") , I wont have to worry about having enemies due to the fact I love mostly everybody(John 13:35), and lastly I will have many blessings poured into my life for putting God first(Matthew 6:33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well). The consequences of not following these rules would be that my days would be cut short for disobeying my parents, I would have a lot more enemies than friends, and if I would have to go through many unneccassery trials just because I didn't put God first.
