What’s True? What do I see in the Bible?

A Faith of Integrity

1. Do not swear. (James 5:12 / Matthew 5:33-36 / Leviticus 19:12 / Hebrews 6:13-16)

2. Uphold your word. (James 5:12 / Matthew 5:37; 23:16-22 / Mark 14:71 / Proverbs 10:19 / John 8:44)

3. Trust God’s Word. (Hebrews 6:17-20 / John 8:31-32 / Deuteronomy 8:2-3 / Proverbs 30:5 / Psalms 12:6, 18:30, 56:4, 62:8)

What’s Real? What do I see in my life?

• Have you ever been hurt by somebody who didn’t keep his/her word? How did that affect your relationship or opinion of him/her?

• Have you ever said “I swear...”? Why?

• How is swearing (an oath; not cuss words) a substitute for integrity?
