“Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.” Exodus 20:16

As long as the devil is loose and sinful men refuse to repent, there will be false accusations and false reports, yet God promised that He will eternally judge all who participate in such an abomination.

Recently, I met and spoke at length with a man who was falsely accused of a crime he never committed. This man spent 27 years in prison for a crime committed by someone else other than himself. Based on DNA evidence, this man was freed. Now that DNA evidence can be submitted, some who were falsely accused and convicted are being exonerated and freed from prison. The government then has to pay them for false conviction and incarceration and yet we must wonder how great damage has been done to that falsely accused man or woman. Many of us wonder how many people sit in prison today who have also been falsely accused and convicted. False accusation is a very serious offense in the eyes of the Almighty who was anything but silent about such in His Word.

Bearing false witness or participating with others in this evil carries with it great judgment. No disciple of Jesus should ever associate with a tale bearer (bearer of tales). Tale bearing refers to conveying or repeating something negative that has not been proven.

NEVER EVER DRAW CONCLUSION ON ANYTHING BEFORE YOU’VE HEARD THE WHOLE STORY

“He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.” Proverbs 18:13

“He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.” Proverbs 18:17 

Are not our laws in this country crafted after this truth? “Innocent UNTIL PROVEN guilty.”…

DNA – Do Not Associate!

There’s biblical evidence of yet another kind of DNA believers should be aware of.

False reports are filed daily in this sinful world. For example, ungodly, greedy people file reports against the rich in order to get a financial settlement. Others file false reports for a variety of other malicious, sinful reasons. Personally, although I don’t even pay much attention anymore, I seriously doubt a lot of the reports filed by women against famous, rich athletes. And, I have chosen not to participate in slanderous remarks and statements, especially when there is no actual witness.

Among the body of Christ are tares our LORD told us (Matthew 13). Many times, out of sheer jealousy/envy, some perpetrate malicious and slanderous statements against others. They do this to hurt the person their iniquitous heart despises due to their own soul-damning envy (Galatians 5:19-21).

Today, among the righteous, some have been falsely accused and suffer for that misrepresentation. We must beware not to ever participate in this dissembling work of the one who is the very accuser of the brethren (Proverbs 26:20; Revelation 12:10).

“Thou shalt not raise (originate) a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness (do not participate). 2Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest (pervert) judgment:” Exodus 23:1-2

Justice against another person is never to be perverted. Think Golden Rule – “as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.” (Luke 6:31) The disciple of Christ is never to participate in a “false report” in any form or fashion. If we do, according to the above passage in His Word, God sees us as “an unrighteous witness” or one who bears false witness. A “report” can be drafted by ANYone about ANYone else and say ANYthing that originator wants to convey. But that doesn’t make the report true.

Speaking of the Golden Rule: How did you feel the last time you were falsely accused? How do you think others feel when they are accused, especially falsely? Do you want mercy shown to you the next time you are in error? If, so then perhaps we should show mercy to others as God has been so very merciful to us.

What is to be considered a “false report”? A “false report” would simply be a report that is false, one that there is no proven, actual witnesses to who saw it with their eyes or heard it with their own ears. Closely notice the word “witnesses” in the verse below:

“In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.” 2 Corinthians 13:1

Hearsay is one thing and an actual witness is another. The next time someone brings you a report about another, ask them if THEY actually witnessed what they are reporting.

Though there must be “two or three WITNESSES” for us to buy into a “report,” we must also beware that wolves have always conspired together and run in packs and work against Christ and His servants (Nehemiah 2:10, 19; 4:7-8; Ezekiel 22:25-27; Luke 23:12). Our LORD Himself, king David, and Paul the apostle had “MANY false witnesses” rise up against them (Psalms 35:11; Matthew 26:60; Acts 6:13). All who truly serve Christ will have false witnesses rise up against them to falsely accused them (Matthew 5:11; Philippians 1:29). Jesus promised that those who truly followed and obeyed Him would be severely persecuted and spoken evil of (1 Peter 4:1). He says that the enemy’s children will say “all manner of evil against” them (Matthew 5:10-12). So, why should we be surprised if we or another brother or sister is slandered? (1 Peter 4:12-14)

Beware of the enemy’s desire to discredit the witnesses of our LORD. He “walketh about seeking whom he may devour.” (1 Peter 5:8) The enemy in particular targets the fruitful doers of the work of Christ just as he did in the days of Nehemiah (Nehemiah 2:10, 19; 4:7-8).

Soon Satan and his false witnesses shall be forever vanquished from touching the righteous, irrevocably slammed down deep into the bowels of eternal damnation.

Just WHO does the Bible say participates in false reports? Read this verse carefully:

“A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; and a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue.” Proverbs 17:4

WHY DO SOME HEAR AND BELIEVE SLANDER?

WHY DO SOME MIGRATE TO HERESIES?

What God’s Word says of those who have an ear for lies – “A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; and a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue.” Proverbs 17:4

WHO gives ear, who listens to “false lips”? – “A wicked doer … a liar.”

In this very matter of giving ear to and furthering a “false report” we don’t personally have knowledge of or where there are not two or three actual eye witnesses, the Bible here says:  “Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil.” (Exodus 23:1-2)

“These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him … A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.” Proverbs 6:16, 19

Biblical Prescription to Remove Strife

How are we instructed to stop strife, tale bearing, false reports, and the abomination of sowing discord among the brethren?

Proverbs 26

“Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.

 21As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a contentious man to kindle strife.

 22The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

 23Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.

 24He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him;

 25When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart.

 26Whose hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness shall be shewed before the whole congregation.

 27Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that rolleth a stone, it will return upon him.

 28A lying tongue hateth those that are afflicted by it; and a flattering mouth worketh ruin.”

According to verse 20 in the passage above, the only way to get rid of strife is to get rid of the person or persons who have originated it and anyone circulating it and furthering its evil cause.

“Where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth.” Proverbs 26:20

Psalms 50

“2The tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.

 3Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah.

 4Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.

 5God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah.

 6The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him.”

Here’s is the LORD’s pronouncement of His eternal judgment impending upon those who would misuse the tongue He gave them. Such venomous iniquity originates in the hearts of men. Jesus says that “O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.” (Matthew 12:34)

Remember to always show mercy on others even as God has shown such great mercy upon you – upon us – “while we were yet sinners.” (Romans 5:6-8)

“Be Strong in the Grace that is in Christ Jesus” – 2 Timothy Chapter 2 [podcast]


A Good Soldier of Christ Jesus

1  Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

2  And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

3  Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

4  No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

5  And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

6  The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.

7  Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.

8  Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

9  Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.

10  Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

11  It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:

12  If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:

13  If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.

A Workman Approved by God

14  Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.

15  Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

16  But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

17  And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

18  Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

19  Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

20  But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.

21  If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.

22  Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

23  But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.

24  And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,

25  In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;

26  And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

“A Faithful Man shall Abound with Blessings” [podcast]


Do you desire to abound in the blessings of God?

Jesus our LORD taught that as we are faithful with what the LORD has already given us, then, and only then, will He multiply it.

ASK YOURSELF: Are you faithful to abide, to obey Him by obeying His Word? If so, Jesus and the Father are dwelling richly with you and will multiply you according to your proper, wise, faithful stewardship of what is already in your possession – which is from Him. See John 14:21-23.

“A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.” Proverbs 28:20

God is not going to add to or multiply His supply and blessings to anyone who is sitting around, doing the church attendance thing, and not doing His biblically stated will – of loving, tending to, giving to, serving, and blessing others (Matthew 22:37-39). Every true disciple is a doer of the WORD (James 1:22; 1 John 2:3-6, etc.). A true disciple is not known merely by being a church attender, which any old dead fish counterfeit can be. No, the true servant of Christ is known by his supreme love for, and faithful obedience to Christ his King, his “first love” (Revelation 2:4-5).

“For all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.” 1 Chronicles 29:14

Every good gift and blessing is from God (James 1:17). We take from what He’s given us and we share it with others – whether that be supply, or spiritual blessings in Christ, or material blessings.

“But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. 7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. 8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: 9 (as it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. 10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;) 11 being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.” 2 Corinthians 9:6-11

“Freely ye have received, freely give.” Matthew 10:8

ARE GOD’S BLESSINGS CONDITIONAL?  Yes they are. Here’s but one example of how God’s people forfeited His blessings due to living life on their own terms instead of complying with His.

“Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.” Jeremiah 5:25

Jesus’ Parable of the Talents:
Matthew 25:14-30

14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

15  And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

16  Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.

17  And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.

18  But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money.

19  After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

20  And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

21  His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

22  He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.

23  His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

24  Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:

25  And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.

26  His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:

27  Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

28  Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.

29  For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

30  And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Prayer: Holy Father, I come to You in the name of my LORD Jesus. Please make my heart to long for more of You, to love and worship You as my supreme God, Supplier, and Provider. Please unite my heart to truly fear Thy holy Name and to be quickened by Your Word and Holy Spirit unto obedience. Please multiply Your grace to my life as You are working in me and Your body both to will and to do of Your good pleasure. In Jesus’ name, amen.
