Teaching by Andre’ D. Fullwood

Manuscript pages 123–124

Exodus 20:16 (AMPC) “You shall not bear false witness…” The Hebrew phrase ed shaker means lying testimony, false evidence.

When you speak about others, you are giving testimony , before God.

Your words can:

  • defend
  • protect
  • honor
  • cover
  • strengthen

Or your words can:

  • accuse
  • slander
  • misrepresent
  • expose
  • harm

God judges false testimony severely.

The tongue as witness confronts us with a question:

What testimony have I given about others?
