A False Witness: Part One
Welcome to The REALLY Real Deal and our message from August 7, 2022 titled, “A False Witness: Part One.” I am Reverend Craig, your Friendly Neighborhood Hatchet Man, and today is Flashback Friday.
Last Friday, I shared my sermon titled, “Open Thy Mouth and Speak!”
Today I discuss the reluctance of Men of God to handle race hustlers in the way our Bible instructs us. I show how God has commanded us to take on all lies, sins, and injustices.
In addition, I address how constant cries of “White Supremacy” or “Racism” are slanderous and un-Godly. How they violate the Ninth Commandment: “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.”
These lies happen because of ones willingness to violate yet another Commandment: “Thou shalt not covet.” When we covet the property of another individual, we lead ourselves down a path of untruths. It is easy to weaponize information to destroy people who have what we may want. It is harder to get to the root of these issues and heal them from the inside out.
However, every word has weight. They can be used to build up or destroy. It is easy to blame, but harder to hear and understand another person’s side.
God’s word says “Iron sharpens iron…” Will you be someone who sharpens another, or will you give in to bearing false witness against your Reverend?
God Bless y’all!
