How very common is the
"art" of lying, in our present
day world! "White lies",
"half-truths" are rationalized
by the desire to evade un
pleasant consequences of our
actions and beliefs! We plead
"we don't want to hurt so-and-so"
as justification of our own,
personal, moral cowardice
We completely ignore the fact
that personal cowardice Lri
little things all too often leads
to personal cowardiee in bin
things!
The Ninth Cornm.iihiment
should be ever befote u as we
go through life; the aim . this
lesson is to stress t : llitjle'.1
attitude towards 'al . 'oi4s,
and to spell out guid. n s for
living in accordarin i the
principles of since: :, and
truth.
The far-reaching eif t
lie on the church as a hi d . for
good is demonstrated i: :he
story of Ananias an! p
phira, his wife i Ai
Ephesians 4:25 ; Tin i- in
regarding the aim. 1 ,
money they received !
land they had sold was in: :
God ; developed f urthe r. :
also against their neighn '
the young church (It w;!;
remembered that i .n
steadfastly regarded
church as a inembe:
Christ's body, and
congregation as an exlen -im
of that body).
How many of us, who n t .
ourselves as good,
fearing Christians, lead w!:.:'
we honestly believe to !ji
model Christian existc
being good parents, :
providers, active and :
terested members of un
church and our comnmmU
and, completely unabasheo
do an "about-face" when ;".
canes to a business deal'' The
"almighty dollar' hat
prompted many actions
that. .although "legal". ...
not strictly ethical ' The term
"good business pracMce"
sometimes should 1 tntn
slated as "sharp !'um;h-,s
practice"!
And how often do we pick up
a newspaper only to find mat
the Government is beat ng
down heavily on some v. ell
known concern for fal.se ad
vertising? The main practice of lying,
however, and the n t
widespread (and the m t
personally damaging i he: in
the spoken word. 1,'r.told
misery and distrust are iv
casioned by lies between
husband and wife, parent-, and
children, man to man' I be
only secret of restrained
speech as kind as it is truth
fulis to put the tongues of
men under the authority of
Christ. Christ, Himself, said
that "it is not that which goeth
into the mouth defile th a man ;
but that which rometh out of
the mouth, this defileth a
man". (Matthew 15:11).
How we use words, and
apply them to our daily livs,', "
is relevant to the kind of
person we are, the kind of life
we lead. By our denial of our
words, or by our affirmation
of them, so are we Judged by
God and by our fellow men I -.
A sense of personal integrity '
motivated Christ In His works
In the world. A sense of per-"
sonal integrity must, . of
necessity, motivate Christians
In the world, and In service to .
the Saviour of mankind. , ',
Truth is demanded in the .
count of the land. In the name
of justice. Truth is essential In'
tbe Christian life if the
Christian goal is to be ao
ootnpHshed. Truth is to be
revered and practiced in the
personal life of the Christian If L
Christianity to to prevail.: ;
