Integrity
Luke 16:10-13 — He who is faithful in what is
least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what
is least is unjust also in much. Therefore if you have not
been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your
trust the true riches? And if you have not been faithful
in what is another man’s, who will give you what is your own?
“No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the
one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and
despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.”
Ephesians 4:1 — I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord,
beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were
called,
Colossians 3:9-10 — Do not lie to one another, since you
have put off the old man with his deeds, and have put on the new
man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of
Him who created him,
2 Thessalonians 3:13 — But as for you, brethren,
do not grow weary in doing good.
Titus 2:7-8 — in all things showing yourself to be
a pattern of good works; in doctrine showing integrity,
reverence, incorruptibility, sound speech that cannot be
condemned, that one who is an opponent may be ashamed, having
nothing evil to say of you.
1 John 1:5-6 — This is the message which we have heard
from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no
darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and
walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
Revelation 14:5 — And in their mouth was found no deceit,
for they are without fault before the throne of God.
Psalm 15:1-5 —
Lord, who may abide in Your tabernacle? Who may dwell in
Your holy hill? He who walks uprightly, And works righteousness,
And speaks the truth in his heart; He who does not
backbite with his tongue, Nor does evil to his neighbor, Nor
does he take up a reproach against his friend; In whose eyes a
vile person is despised, But he honors those who fear the
Lord; He who
swears to his own hurt and does not change; He who does
not put out his money at usury, Nor does he take a bribe against
the innocent. He who does these things shall never be
moved.
Proverbs 10:9 — He who walks with integrity walks
securely, But he who perverts his ways will become known.
Proverbs 11:3 — The integrity of the upright will guide
them, But the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them.
Proverbs 19:1 — Better is the poor who walks in
his integrity Than one who is perverse in his lips, and
is a fool.
Proverbs 28:6 — Better is the poor who walks in
his integrity Than one perverse in his ways, though he
be rich.
Proverbs 20:7 — The righteous man walks in his
integrity; His children are blessed after him.
Psalm 15:1-4 —
Lord, who may abide in Your tabernacle? Who may dwell in
Your holy hill? He who walks uprightly, And works righteousness,
And speaks the truth in his heart; He who does not
backbite with his tongue, Nor does evil to his neighbor, Nor
does he take up a reproach against his friend; In whose eyes a
vile person is despised, But he honors those who fear the
Lord; He who
swears to his own hurt and does not change;
Ecclesiastes 5:2-7 — Do not be rash with your mouth, And
let not your heart utter anything hastily before God. For God
is in heaven, and you on earth; Therefore let your words be
few. For a dream comes through much activity, And a fool’s voice
is known by his many words. When you make a vow to
God, do not delay to pay it; For He has no pleasure in
fools. Pay what you have vowed— Better not to vow than to vow
and not pay. Do not let your mouth cause your flesh to sin, nor
say before the messenger of God that it was an
error. Why should God be angry at your excuse and destroy the
work of your hands? For in the multitude of dreams and many
words there is also vanity. But fear God.
Deuteronomy 23:21-23 — “When you make a vow to the
Lord your God, you
shall not delay to pay it; for the
Lord your God will
surely require it of you, and it would be sin to you. But if you
abstain from vowing, it shall not be sin to you. That which has
gone from your lips you shall keep and perform, for you
voluntarily vowed to the
Lord your God what you have promised with your mouth.
