For Our Good Always | You Shall Not Bear False Witness Against Your Neighbor | November 7

Sermon by Jake Blair on November 7, 2021.

In this week’s teaching, we explore the 9th commandment, “You shall not bear false witness.” “Bearing false witness” means to tell a story about someone that isn’t true; you act as a witness to their behavior or character and do it in a way that doesn’t line up with reality. This subject is more complicated than you might think. It’s possible to bear false witness knowingly or even unknowingly.
