You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
Morning Good Teacher. My greeting is not just a respectful formal greeting to a religious teacher but one with awe reverence of who You are Jesus. As I read and study Your Holy Word, Your Spirit counsels me and I am grateful beyond measure. The teachers of the law didn't recognize there is only One good and that is You God. May we love You Lord with all our heart, mind, soul and strength. You have taught us to owe no one anything except to love one another. Love does no harm to a neighbor. May the words of truth of Your great love for us that You poured out from the cross be on our lips. We love ourselves and others when we bear witness of truth, so Lord two things I ask, remove falsehood and lying far from us. You Lord have instructed us to teach no other doctrine, nor give heed to fables, mythologies, and pantheistic paganism which all bear false witness against You but to love from a pure heart, good conscience and from sincere faith. Help us Lord to not stray turning aside to idle talk or desiring to teach the law being loveless and legalistic with impure hearts and motives. Remind us of Your instruction without love we promotes legalism. But what Lord is the proper function of the law but to make sinners aware of our sinfulness and our need of You, our Savior. I bear witness of this truth as I am a wild olive branch gratefully grafted. Today Lord may we be bold in our speech as we testify of the Good News that You have saved us from the bondage of law and our own sin. Thank You Jesus for loving us and teaching us the Way we should go. May we never depart from it. In Your great name we pray and give thanks. Amen.
