All right, turning your Bibles to Psalm 32. Now we're still in the series on the 10

Commandments. We're on the 9th Commandments, so we have one more next weekend,

but the scripture I'll show you today, one of the scriptures will be in Psalm 32 if you want to turn to that scripture.

So if you're joining us, we're in a series called Relationship through God's top 10. And what I'm doing is I'm looking

for the principle that's behind each of the 10 Commandments, the principle of relationship. I believe God gave us the Ten Commandments

for a couple of reasons, but for one of those reasons is for us to be able to have a better

relationship with Him and a better relationship

with others.

So the 9th commandment is Exodus chapter 20 verse 16, you shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

Now many times we shorten this to you shall not lie. that's okay that's the jest of it but I think we need to really look at what the actual commandment is and talk about it for a moment and I want to clarify something that your neighbor in scripture is not the person that lives beside you.

It's any person you come in contact with.

And here's how I know that because Jesus said, they said what's the most important commandment?

He said, love God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength and love your neighbor as yourself.

And they said, who is our neighbor.

And he told the famous story of the Good Samaritan.

Do you remember that?

Hello?

Okay.

I thought y'all'd already dozed off.

Well, you got like 10 minutes before you doze, all right?

So, so he tells the story of the Good Samaritan.
