Are there Sins not covered in the 10 commandments?
1-Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
2-Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
3-Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
4-Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
5-Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
6-Thou shalt not kill.
7-Thou shalt not commit adultery.
8-Thou shalt not steal.
9-Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
10-Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s.
Yes—there are sins not explicitly named in the Ten Commandments.
The Ten Commandments are a short list of core obligations (mainly about worshiping God and basic duties toward others). Most other sins—like anger, cruelty, deceit, gluttony, envy, and many forms of unfaithfulness—aren’t singled out as separate commandments there, though many are addressed elsewhere in the Bible (and the Ten Commandments function more like principles that imply broader moral boundaries).
The Apostle Paul WARNS Believers of these:
Galatians 5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
Ephesians 4:31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:
Ephesians 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
Ephesians 4:31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:
Colossians 3:8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
Colossians 3:21 Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
