James 5:12 But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your “Yes” be “Yes,” and your “No,” “No,” lest you fall into judgment.
One of the biggest problems that we face is the amount of lies that we have to face or even tell others.
When God said that we should always be truthful, it was not just to please others but to make sure that we do not fall into the pit of destruction ourselves!
Does that sound harsh? Well think about the consequences of a lie. Think about the destruction and broken hearts it eventually brings and don’t try to make excuses this time!
