Honesty
He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain
of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his
ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil; He shall
dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall
be given him; his waters shall be sure. (Isaiah 33:15-16)
Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not
steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.
(Mark 10:19)
Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall
we do? And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
(Luke 3:12-13)
And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. (Luke
6:31)
Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;
But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness,
nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth
commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God. (2
Corinthians 4:1-2)
Receive us; we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded
no man. (2 Corinthians 7:2)
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are
lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if
there be any praise, think on these things. (Philippians 4:8)
Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to
live honestly. (Hebrews 13:18)
Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak
against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold,
glorify God in the day of visitation. (1 Peter 2:12) |
