DAY 9
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
....declares the Lord:
I will put my laws into their minds,
and write them
on their hearts,
and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Exodus 20:16/2 Corinthians 3:3
Q: Who is the father of LIES?
A: Ye
are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do.
....and abode not in the truth,
because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of
his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
John 8:44
DAILY REMINDER
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, 
and have not LOVE, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
And though I have the gift of
prophecy, and understand all mysteries,
and all knowledge; and though I
have all faith, so that I could remove mountains,
and have not LOVE,
I am nothing.
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not LOVE, it profiteth me nothing.LOVE suffereth long, and
is kind;
LOVE envieth not;
LOVE vaunteth not itself, is not
puffed up,
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own,
is not
easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
And now abideth faith, hope, LOVE, these three;
but the greatest of these is LOVE.
And from Jesus Christ, ....Unto him that loved us,
and washed us from our sins in his own blood,...
1 Corinthians 13:1-5,13/Revelation 1:5
“No greater injury can be inflicted upon men than to ruin their reputation.”
John Calvin
Closing Thought for the Day
For every kind of beasts,
and of birds,
and of serpents,
and of things in the sea,
is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
James 3:7,8
