Holiness
and honesty are two qualities which are to characterize the life of the
Christian. The ‘laws’ in Deuteronomy stress the importance of holiness.
Jesus, in His parable of the shrewd manager, emphasizes the importance
of honesty – “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be
trusted with much” (Luke 16:10).
We are not to put on a facade of holiness. We are to be honest in our
seeking holiness. If we despise the way of honesty and holiness, we will
go the way of folly against which we are warned in Proverbs 9:13-18.
