dc.description.abstractEthos is the distinguishing character, sentiment, moral nature and guiding beliefs of a person, group or Institution. The Torah projects ethos in the Decalogue which guided the social and spiritual lives of the Israelites, especially in the matters of interpersonal relationships and about the acquisition of assets or valuables. The problem this paper tends to address is the normalization of covetousness among the Church leaders and members by employing undue emphasis on wealth acquisition in their teachings and preaching. Through exegetical method used for the study to the passage under study (Exo. 20:13-18), the findings reveal that the ethical implications of covetousness can be grievous. It must not be renamed with contemporary Church parlance "breakthrough" but must be abhorred.
