A Promise For You From Bible Promises:
Topic: Avoid Dishonest Gain
Behold, therefore I have smitten mine hand at thy dishonest gain which thou hast made, and at thy blood which hath been in the midst of thee. Ezekiel 22:13
Dishonesty is lack of honest, the quality of untruthful or deceitful. It present one as a fraudster. This bad trait has been prevalent today because the society we lived in has taught us that, there is nothing wrong with this monster called dishonesty. Dishonest gain is desiring above what is yours, wanting to increase the amount above the normal price. This trait has caused many havoc in the land. Through dishonest gain, injustice is prevalent in our land, where a rich man buy his freedom from the law court and the poor innocent is punished instead. The law enforcement agencies has been suppressed and the government of the land are handicap because they also are dishonest in their dealings also. Wife, through dishonest gain extort money from her husband, children and students are not left out of this.
If the society has failed in curbing this trait, the Church of Christ must take full responsibility to stop this. The Church must not involve herself in this shred behaviour, rather, be a light to expose this evil trait. Members must not give dishonest gain as an offering, tithes, gifts or first fruit to God, it's unacceptable to God, though man may accept them. Jesus said in Revelation 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. Be honest always in your dealings because it has reward.
* Dishonest gain is a sin unto God, avoid it today
