The 10 Commandments E12 — The common summary of the 9th Commandment is “Do not lie,” a generic prohibition against all kinds of fibs. But the commandment actually reads “Do not bear false witness,” drawing attention to a very specific kind of lying in a communal, legal setting. Many of the other commandments are more general. So why does the 9th Commandment zoom in on truth telling in public, legal settings? In this episode, Jon and Tim explore the 9th Commandment, discovering its underlying value of upholding truth and justice in defense of the most vulnerable in society.

Pastor Greg continues our sermon series through Proverbs 6:16-19 and teaches on bearing false witness towards others and toward God and why we should walk and live in truth.
In Matthew 15, Pastor Karl walks through two encounters that reveal how Jesus responds to very different kinds of people. The first is a confrontation with the Pharisees — religious leaders who had mastered looking clean on the outside while leaving their hearts completely untouched. Jesus exposes their hypocrisy and makes clear that the real issue is never what comes in from the outside, but what flows out from within.The second is a striking contrast: a Canaanite woman from Tyre and Sidon who comes to Jesus with nothing to offer — no credentials, no leverage, no religious standing. She simply cries out for mercy. When Jesus seems silent and even dismissive, she doesn't leave offended. She presses in, clings to grace, and receives what the Pharisees never could: a direct word of commendation from Jesus himself — "Great is your faith."God honors a transformed heart and exposes religious hypocrisy. And he blesses according to his grace — not our worthiness. This message is an invitation to stop trying to leverage God and start crying out for his mercy.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm
God desires that we speak the truth in love, using wisdom and discretion to help others with our words instead of doing harm. By Pastor Shawn Lyons.
Brett Vanderzee preaches a sermon on Exodus 20:16 in a series entitled "The Ten Words: Christ and the Commandments."
Preacher: Chad Vegas
Welcome to Kevin Conner's podcast. This series, recorded in 1989, explores the Ten Commandments. For more in-depth teaching on this important subject, we invite you to read Kevin's best-selling book ‘What Do You Mean I Am Not Under Law, I Am Under Grace?', available from Amazon and as a PDF download from https://www.kevinconner.org/books-by-kevin/law-and-grace/
Main Idea: Jesus went against the norms of the day. His way of associating Himself with sinners and bringing them to God with grace and truth stood in stark contrast to the Pharisee's way of judgment and condemnation that kept their followers from God. They soon recognized this was more than a movement and had to be dealt with; they first decided the sentence and in this message we will see how they sought to carry it out. Message Notes: http://bible.com/events/49581016

Continuing our series on the Ten Commandments, this sermon explores Deuteronomy 5:20 and its prohibition against bearing false witness. We consider the unique evil of lies that condemn the innocent, the rare biblical exceptions for protecting life, and the positive call to be people of truth who build up others in love, defend the vulnerable, and proclaim the gospel as faithful witnesses for Christ.

Welcome back to The Information Entropy Podcast! This week we are exploring our past through the form of memories… what are memories in the first place and how do they biologically function? Are they as accurate as you think or is your episodic memory filled with false reconstructions? How it possible for two people observing the same event to have two dramatically different recollections? Why is nostalgia such a positive feeling: Is it just rose tinted glasses or a longing for times gone by? Join Mitch and Tom as they break it down for you.
Today is day 343 and we are studying The Ninth Commandment. 343. How is false witness given in respect to the teaching of the Church?

Today is day 341 and we are studying The Ninth Commandment. 341. Why does God forbid such false witness? Because it defames and wounds my neighbor, erodes my love of truth, disobeys my Lord Jesus, and aligns me with Satan, the father of lies. (Psalm 52:1–5; Proverbs 25:18; Jeremiah 9:3–9; John 8:42–47) We will conclude today by praying Prayer 87.For Participation in the Peace of God found on page 672 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

A Life Pleasing to God - Avoid Being a False Witness - Travis Huff by The Church of Christ Wheeler Area
Should Christians think differently about what we post, share, and say online? In this episode, Mark and Emily explore the Ninth Commandment, “Do not bear false witness,” and apply it to the age of social media, political outrage, and public discourse.They talk about the temptation to exaggerate, misrepresent, or dehumanize those we disagree with — and why followers of Jesus should be people who speak truth, pursue peace, and resist the pull of conspiracy, sarcasm, and slander. From political ads to Instagram comments, this conversation invites us to reflect Christ not only in what we say, but how we say it.Resources:Cornerstone Church Sermons: Listen online
In this powerful sermon, Ps. Nate Schatzline boldly confronts the growing lack of truth within the Body of Christ.As believers, we're called to speak truth—no matter how uncomfortable or inconvenient it feels. Yet the enemy has conditioned much of the American Church to compromise and conceal truth under the guise of cultural sensitivity. Satan has prepared a Church that's comfortable with silence—one that tolerates deception rather than exposes it. But God is raising up a remnant that refuses to water down the Word.
In this message, Pastor Dehavilland Ford powerfully unpacks the ninth command “Do not bear false witness,” showing that it's more than avoiding lies—it's a call to embody God's truth in every part of life. He explains that deception partners with the enemy, the father of lies, while truth aligns us with the heart of God. Bearing false witness isn't just speaking what's false but also staying silent when truth must be spoken. Pastor Dehavilland Ford challenges believers to reject cultural deception, live with radical honesty, and boldly reflect Jesus—the Way, the Truth, and the Life—through their words, actions, and witness to a generation desperate for truth.
In a world that's constantly redefining truth, God is calling His people back to Himself—the Source of all Truth. In this message, we dive deep into the commandment “Do not bear false witness” and uncover how easily we can partner with deception—about others, about God, and even about ourselves. From subtle propaganda to cultural redefinitions of words like “marriage,” “gender,” and “truth,” Pastor ___ exposes how the enemy is waging war on the Truth and how believers must respond. You'll learn how to encounter the God of Truth daily, break unholy alliances with lies, and steward Truth in your inner man so you can embody it in every part of your life. This message will challenge you to examine what voices you've been listening to, what “truths” you've been believing, and how to walk in freedom through the Spirit of Truth, Jesus Christ—the One who still crushes the head of the serpent.
In this message, Pastor Susan continues our series Unlocked—a deep dive into the Ten Commandments and how they shape the way we live today. She teaches on the commandment, “You shall not bear false witness,” revealing how truth goes beyond our words and reflects the integrity of our hearts. Throughout the message, we're reminded that living with honesty and authenticity leads to freedom in our relationships and a deeper walk with God.
In this message, Pastor Les teaches on the ninth commandment, “You shall not bear false witness.” Lying isn't just words, it's partnering with the father of lies. From the serpent's deception in Genesis to Ananias and Sapphira in Acts, we see that falsehood always brings death. Bearing false witness can look like compromise, image-management, or silencing truth for approval. But Jesus is Truth, and when we walk in Him, we are set free to live authentically and love radically.

Many Bible-readers over the centuries have worked diligently to anchor to the Ten Commandments outlined in the Mosaic Law as the path to limit sin in their lives. But that isn't what the Bible teaches! Romans 5:20 teaches us that the Mosaic Law actually increases sin! So, what is God's path for Christians to take in their everyday life full of different choices to make? Join Kevin as we examine the startling path that bears the fruits that actually work to crowd out sin! // Download this episode's Application & Action questions and PDF transcript at whitestone.org.
Do not bear false witness…what does this word actually mean? Who among us never stretches the truth; never avoids upsetting someone unnecessarily with a casual truth-omission, or holds back our honest thoughts and feelings for all the right reasons? In its original context, the ninth commandment was a prohibition against a false word that could cost someone their life, but (just like the rest of the them!) it speaks a truer word about being a people who bear true witness. It's about community, justice, allegiance to the God of truth, and building relational fabric of trust and honesty. To gospel-writer John, truth was never presented as a principle or standard—it is a person. Jesus is Truth. He has given us the Spirit of Truth. And those who follow Him are called to speak, live, and embody truth in love. This truth-telling is not about perfection, but participation: in the unity of Christ's body, in the slow, patient work of sanctification, and in resisting the all the language of the deceiver. By Hannah Flint
