Rules for Life: The Way We Best Operate | Rule 8: Honesty

from St Marcus MKE Sermons · host St Marcus

This week we'll be studying Acts 5:1-11 -  under the theme "HONESTY - RULE 8 - "Tell the truth - or, at least, don't lie." Honesty is the best policy...or so they say. "Best" in what regard? Honesty can certainly get us into trouble. It can certainly hurt feelings. Honesty can condemn. But it's also the only way forward. Whether we're talking about "telling lies" or "living lies" (i.e. denial), truth alone can set people free. Truth can create order, whereas deception breeds chaos. In our text this week, God establishes very early in the Church that he would not tolerate his people pretending to be something they were not.
