“Provide things honest in the sight of all men!” (Romans.12:17)
As God’s children, we’re supposed to be advocates of the Truth. If there’s anything Christians are supposed to have, it’s the TRUTH, & if people catch you in just one little lie, they’ll never trust you about anything anymore!
This is the punishment of a liar: He is not believed even when he speaks the truth. In almost any court of law, if the witness lies about only one thing, even if 99% of what he said is the truth, he has lied & thereby disqualified himself from being a witness, & they throw out his ENTIRE testimony. Every person you witness to is a little judge examining your every word, & if they catch you in one lie it’s going to discredit your whole testimony! If you lie about one little thing, people will assume you could be guilty of much greater things!
What does God’s Word have to say about liars? “Be sure your sins will find you out! Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap!” (Num.32:23; Gal.6:7) Lying is just not right! God doesn’t like it & the person you’re lying to doesn’t like it! So for God’s sake speak the TRUTH!–It is a part of your good witness & your testimony of “honesty with them that are without”! (1Th.4:12)–Amen?

“在众人面前都要诚实作事！”（罗12:17）
我们身为上帝的子民，应该是真理的倡导者。如果基督徒应该拥有什么的话，他就应该拥有真理，只要人们发现你说一小句谎言，他们就将永不再相信你所说的任何事情！
这是对说谎者的惩罚∶即使他说实话，也不会被人相信。几乎在所有的法庭上，只要某个人说了一句谎言，那么即使他说的其余百分之九十九都是事实，他也会因为说谎而失去作为证人的资格，法庭将会取消他的所有证言。你向之作见证的每一个人都是一个小法官，在审查你的每一句话，只要他们发现你说一句谎话，那么他们将不会相信你的整个见证！你在一件小事上说谎，人们就会认为你可能在更大的事上也会有罪！
上帝的圣言对说谎者是怎么说的呢？“要知道你们的罪必追上你们！人种的是什么，收的也是什么！”（民32:23;加6:7）说谎就是不对的！上帝不喜欢你这样做，你向之说谎的人也不喜欢你这样做！因此看在上帝的份上，说真理吧！它是你的好见证的一部分，及你“向外人行事诚实”之见证的一部分！（帖前4:12）阿们？
