Shepherding Words (18) | A Warning about Rumors and False Witness

Finally, be empowered in the Lord and in the might of His strength. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the stratagems of the devil, For our wrestling is not against blood and flesh but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenlies. Therefore take up the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Ephesians 6:10-13.As believers who love the Lord and who are standing for His testimony, we must not be ignorant of the schemes of God’s enemy in his attacks on the church. In order to help educate and inoculate us against such attacks, the co-workers in North America have released a series of articles on ShepherdingWords.com, which expose the stratagems of the devil.  This week, we have a narration of the article titled “A Warning about Rumors and False Witness” originally published on September 7th, 2024. In the Old and New Testament there are warnings against bearing false witness, spreading rumors, and evil speaking. In our daily life and especially on the internet through social media, the words that we speak and write may be easily amplified. As this article warns, we need to exercise great care in what we post, “like”, and share lest we inadvertently bear false witness or spread rumors. May the Lord supply us through this speaking and equip us to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.The original article can be found at: https://shepherdingwords.com/a-warning-about-rumors-and-false-witness/.
