CST27 – The Ten Commandments: Commandment 9 – Do Not Bear False Witness (#CST35)

CST27 – The Ten Commandments: Commandment 9 – Do Not Bear False WitnessIn this episode of Christian Straight Talk, Reverend Ben Cooper and Simon Pinchbeck explore the Ninth Commandment: “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour” (Exodus 20:16). The discussion moves beyond simple dishonesty to examine truth, encouragement, identity, and the importance of living according to God’s Word. They reflect on how truth impacts families, churches, workplaces, education, and society, while highlighting Jesus Christ as the ultimate source of truth and freedom. Through Scripture and practical examples, they encourage listeners to be honest, uplifting, and faithful witnesses for Christ in a world increasingly shaped by confusion and competing voices.Main ScripturesExodus 20:16John 8:32Matthew 22:37–401 Samuel 16:7Luke 12:12John 14:6Key ThemesThe Ninth CommandmentTruth versus falsehoodJesus as the TruthEncouraging othersLiving authenticallyChristian witnessThe condition of the heartSharing faith in everyday lifeHope in difficult timesFollowing Jesus faithfullySEO Tags#ChristianStraightTalk #TenCommandments #Commandment9 #DoNotBearFalseWitness #TruthWillSetYouFree #JesusIsTheTruth #ChristianPodcast #BibleStudy #FaithInAction #ChristianEncouragement #Exodus20 #John832One-Sentence PromoWhat does it really mean to “not bear false witness” in today’s world?
