Matthew 5: 33-37 | King James Audio Bible | KJV | King James Version

‘Thou shalt not bear false witness.’

God’s commandment against bearing false witness promotes justice, fairness and the preservation of relationships. It recognizes the power of words to either build up or tear down, and it encourages us to use our speech to bring truth, encouragement, and healing to those around us.

Ten Commandments In The Light Of Jesus Christ | Meditations On The Love Of Jesus Christ

In the light of Jesus’ teachings, we are called to be honest not only about others but also about ourselves. Jesus emphasized the importance of self-awareness and acknowledging our own shortcomings. Jesus challenged the religious leaders of his time who presented a façade of righteousness while harbouring hypocrisy within their hearts (Matthew 23:27-28, KJV).

Jesus taught that true transformation begins with honesty and repentance. Jesus invited people to examine their own hearts and recognize the need for inner renewal. Jesus offered forgiveness and restoration to those who humbly confessed their faults and sought a changed life in him.

When we bear false witness about ourselves, pretending to be faultless or righteous, we deceive not only others but also ourselves. Jesus calls us to be authentic, acknowledging our need for his grace and our dependence on his power to live according to his commandments.

Furthermore, Jesus’ teachings remind us that our obedience to the commandments and the Gospel should flow from a heart transformed by Jesus’ love. It is not merely a matter of outward compliance but a reflection of our inner devotion and relationship with Jesus. Jesus desires our wholehearted commitment and honesty in following him.

When we embrace the truth about ourselves, recognizing our flaws and weaknesses, we open ourselves to the transformative power of God’s grace. Honesty allows us to experience the depth of Jesus’ forgiveness and the joy of walking in his ways.

May our prayer be one of humility, honesty and surrender. May we ask Jesus to reveal any areas of falsehood or hypocrisy within us and grant us the strength to live in truth and authenticity. May our obedience to Jesus’ commandments and the Gospel be marked by genuine devotion and a sincere desire to honour him.

‘Let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.’ (Matthew 5:37, KJV)

  • Audio Bible | Christmas | Saint John The Apostle | The Beloved Disciple

    Today’s Bible reading from the Gospel of St John speaks of the beloved disciple, and from earliest times we have identified this disciple with John. It is strange, however, that this identification is not made in the Gospel. It may be that in so readily equating the beloved disciple with John, we miss out on an important truth of the Gospel, which is that we are all beloved disciples – this title is not that of John only; it is open to us all [ … ]

  • Psalm 81 KJV | King James Audio Bible | Word Aloud | Oliver Peers | King James Version

    Psalm 81 is a beautiful and sensitive call to worship God. The psalm becomes a tapestry of remembrance, recounting the historical journey of the Israelites from the land of Egypt and God’s faithfulness in delivering them. The psalmist invites the people to celebrate the appointed feasts, recalling the statutes and laws established by the God of Jacob. In this call to celebration is a reminder of human disobedience and consequences of turning away from God’s loving guidance. There is earnest plea for Israel to heed the divine voice, embrace obedience, and receive abundant blessings promised by their covenant-keeping God [ … ]
