Importance of Honesty

Come near to God: Hebrews 10:22

Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water

Foundation to Fellowship: 1 John 1:7

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.

Brings the Lord near to us: Psalm 145:18

The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.

Brings delights to the Lord: Proverbs 11:1

A false balance is an abomination to the Lord, but a just weight is his delight.

It’s God’s desire for us: Psalm 51:6

Behold, you delight in truth in the inward being, and you teach me wisdom in the secret heart.

It leads to Guidance: Proverbs 11:3

The integrity of the upright guides them, but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them.

It leads to Stability: Psalm 15:2

He who walks blamelessly and does what is right and speaks truth in his heart;

Psalm 15:5

Who does not put out his money at interest and does not take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be moved.

Unity in the Church: Psalm: 15:1-2

O LORD, who shall sojourn in your tent? Who shall dwell on your holy hill? He who walks blamelessly and does what is right and speaks truth in his heart;

 It is a protection: Psalm 25:21

May integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you.
