The Moral Rules
Правило 24. О лжи и истине
Глава. Не должно лгать, но во всяком случае надобно говорить истину.
(Матф.5,37): «Но да будет слово ваше: да, да; нет, нет; а что сверх этого, то от лукавого».
(Еф.4,25): «отвергнув ложь, говорите истину каждый ближнему своему».
(Кол.3,9): «не говорите лжи друг другу».
