Wise Words

A lie does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become a lie because nobody sees it.
~ Mahatma Gandhi

 

31Then said Jesus ...If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;  32And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. 


  50And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.  51Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.

John 8: 31-32, 50-51


~ Jesus Christ

    This post reminds me of another word from Jesus - "Let your communication be yea, yea and your nay, nay." (Matthew 5?) It's another way of saying, "Always tell the truth."

    That's a great verse. Fred. I am always blessed to read the words of Jesus. So deep are his teachings and yet so simple at the same time.
