Colossians 3:9

Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices.

• Honesty
• Integrity
• Humility
• Truth
• Relationships

The commandment to avoid lying is foundational to living an honest life and reflects the transformative power of God's truth in our hearts. By taking off our old selves, characterized by sin and deceit, we are called to embrace a new nature that is honest and upright. Lying undermines trust and damages relationships, while truth builds trust and fosters healthy connections. This verse urges believers to reject the old patterns of behavior associated with deceit and to adopt a life that reflects the truth of God’s Word. Living truthfully requires a willingness to be transparent and to uphold integrity, no matter the situation. By following this command, we create relationships built on trust and respect, which are essential for a thriving community. Furthermore, truthfulness reflects God's character, as He is the ultimate embodiment of truth. Thus, embracing honesty and rejecting lies is a vital part of our Christian witness.
