Transcription de la présentation
  1. Honesty Chapter 9

  2. Fifth Cardinal Virtue • The fifth cardinal virtue is honesty. • Honesty is the ability to seek and uphold the truth. Honesty is the foundation of any lasting relationship. • Honest people not only avoid lies, they are truthful. Honesty takes years to cultivate. (John 8:32) • (examine the honesty of your relationships) • (Why be honest?)

  3. Personal Honesty • Honesty begins with personal honesty. • What is the process of being honest with yourself? • Does turning to another person help your honesty? • everyone engages with self-deception in some areas. • (When was the last time you rationalized something to fool yourself?)

  4. Advantages vs. Disadvantages • Deception and honesty both have advantages and disadvantages. • Honesty helps both long-term and short-term. • Obscuring the real meaning of something is a form of deception. • Class Discussion: • What are the advantages and Disadvantages of being honest • How does cheating in school relate to honesty? • Does being honest sometimes have a high price?

  5. white lie • A “white lie” is an untruth that doesn’t seem to hurt anyone and that makes things run more smoothly. • The problem with a “white lie” is that it ultimately destroys trust. • A “white lie” means that you don’t get the truth from someone you trust. • A pattern of “white lies” is a problem one wants to avoid. (Lies beget lies) • It is not good to become a person who lies a lot.

  6. It is usually best to speak the truth, although every situation doesn’t require the whole truth. • In other words, things can be left unsaid. (How would you communicate a divorce to the children in the family?)

  7. Also, remember that some people have no right to information. • (Frenchmen who hid the location of Jews withheld that knowledge from Nazi officials because the Nazi’s had no right to that knowledge) • This doesn’t mean actual lying but giving evasive answers. • In the end, telling the truth has to be mingled with kindness. Psalm 85:11 says “kindness and truth shall meet”. What does that mean?
