Ninth Commandment

Ten Commandments

You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour (Exodus 20:16)

This Family Study Guide covers God’s Ninth Commandment. It will help your family understand what it means to bear false witness and whether bearing false witness includes other forms of lying. We will review biblical examples of lying and the consequences involved. This guide can help your family understand the harmful effects of lying, including additional problems that it can cause. Lying is the opposite of what God does.

“You must not lie” (Exodus 20:16, The Living Bible). The obedience of this commandment against lying leads to the benefits of a happy life.
