False Witness [The Ninth Command]
Exodus 20:16
16 “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
Just as the previous commandments spoke about my responsibility to my neighbor, so does this one: I am responsible for telling the truth about my neighbor. In any society, truthfulness is necessary for there to be flourishing. When you cannot trust other people, everyone suffers.
What if Christians were known in every community to be scrupulously honest and faithful to the truth?
How does the ninth commandment relate to the third commandment?
