Matthew 5:36-38
Like God’s Word
The Lord is a constant So His Word does not change – Heb.
13:7-9 No matter how much man might God is longsuffering – Mal. 3:6-7
Being Honest
This is half of being consistent, because lies do not agree
Why the Law of Moses demanded two witnesses – Deut. 19:15-19
God dwells with those that tell the truth – Psa. 15:1-3
Honesty is not always easy
Not Changing for Convenience Saying one thing, doing another – Matt.
23:1-4 Or saying what people want to hear –
Eph. 4:11-14 Or perhaps changing our stance
because of personal feelings – Gal. 2:11-14
Jesus did none of these things!
Conclusion
If you wear Christ’s name, He expects you to say what you mean & mean what you say. Being consistent gives our preaching & teaching credibility and lets us shine our lights before others.
