For those interested in the actual topic of this thread --
Here we see the OP quoted. Followed by a great suggestion to actually quote the text that is the subject of the thread --
We begin by quoting it.
"here is the patience of the saints - here are they who KEEP the Commandments of God AND their faith in Jesus" Rev 14:12
John also writes 1 John 5:2-3 "this IS the Love of God that we KEEP His Commandments"
Eph 6:2 Paul tells us that the 5th commandment is "the FIRST Commandment with a promise" -- first in that still-valid-unit-of-Ten. A Bible point that even the Baptist Confession of Faith and Westminster Confession of Faith will admit.
And James 2 reminds us that in those commandments we find things like "Do not murder".
And of course I think all on this board would agree that we are "not to take God's name in vain" even though a direct quote of that command is found nowhere in the NT.
