The world is so full of lying and other forms of deceit that 'bearing false witness' has become a way of life for the vast majority of humanity.


'But I Say to You' (Part Five): Oaths

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

We must grow in personal integrity, providing a witness for the truth to those around them, not needing the crutch of an oath to guarantee our integrity.

A community can only be established upon a foundation of stability and truth. Our relationships must be based upon God's truth, producing faithfulness.


Making the Cut (Part Four)

CGG Weekly by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

A word here or an anecdote there into the right ears can eventually cut another down like knives in the back, blindsiding the subject with wounding gossip.

Satan deceives by mixing truth with and falsehood, promoting cultural pagans or tares among the wheat or members of the church of God.

The Gibeonites' pretense of coming from a distant land resulted in their slavery. Yet, through their influence, they contributed to Israel's destruction.


The Ninth Commandment

Sermon by John W. Ritenbaugh

We must embody truth as did Jesus Christ, absolutely refusing to bear false witness in our words, our behavior, and our cumulative reputation.


Jesus Christ's Trial (Part Four)

Sermon by Martin G. Collins

God will not reveal His precious truth to idle curiosity, as was the case with the self-indulgent Herod Antipas, seeking entertainment rather than truth.


The Case Against Pride

Sermonette by James Beaubelle

Three symptoms of pride include (1) lying to protect our self-image; (2) competitiveness; (3) believing our personal ideas are more valuable than God's Truth.
