#Lies and #bribery poses great #risks to our #life, #health, and #environment. How do we address these problems and change. What are some Biblical impacts? The #falseprophet Shemaiah was #hired by Tobiah and #Sanballat to make #Nehemiah #afraid and #sin to have an evil report, that would reproach Nehemiah. They try to #kill him. Why this matters.
The word Sanballat means “enemy in secret.” Those who oppose God’s plan for your life must answer to God for their deceits.
What does the enemy in #secret really wants you to do?
The word #afraid means (fearful, apprehensive, hesitating, anxious). Example the Bible’s first principle of afraid is, the sole reason why Adam hid from God. This is demonstrating that when your enemy bribes someone to make you afraid, they want you to go into #hiding. Is that clear? It also shows that once a person is stupid enough to take the bribe, they will rip away all your #valuables and leave you naked without even the clothes on your back. Get it?
The king James’ definition of #Bribe is: “Act of giving or taking rewards for corrupt practices, paying or receiving reward for a false judgment.
#Environmental impact of lies
The Bible speaks of lies that have grave consequences for the future of the planet. Who is the #false prophet #Shemaiah? See (#Jeremiah29:24-26). This story highlights disregard of some people for God. To address the difficulties #bribery and lies poses, the Bible tells us: God had to intervene to save an entire population he had to put people’s lies in #check.
1. #Ester3:9 Haman bribes King Ahasureus to destroy the enter population of the #Jews.
2. #Matthew26:15 The chief priest bribes Judas to destroy Jesus.
3. #Acts24:26 Felix tries to #bribe Paul.
However, the Bible in real time shows that “despair” awaits those who takes a bribe. If you have taken a bribe, may God have mercy upon your soul. Those promoting disloyalty to make other people go astray. And those demanding loyalty by bribes. #Woe unto you.
1. #1Samuel2:27-28
2.#1Samuel4
This is why Jeremiah say #falseprophet is full of #folly
#Jeremiah23:13-14 13 And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied in Baal, and caused my people Israel to err. 14 I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness; they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
[Jeremiah’s warning clearly stipulates that the #dangers upon us today, are people who lack good sense, speaking #foolishness, #fraud, #lies, #bribery, which #encourages wicked people to go on #sinning and not turn back to God from their wickedness.
Not my #mouth!
Lying counsel was never issued out of the mouth of Jeremiah. He realized that prophesying lies would corrupt the people even more and justice would be out of the question. Those who have become align to lies must repent and return to God. God implement serious consequences for lies. #jeremiah28:10 Then the prophet Hananiah took the yoke off the neck of the profit Jeremiah broke it [something he did that God did not tell him to do]. #Jeremiah28:17 So Hananiah the propet died the same year that he had delivered out his prophesy; in the same year in which Jeremiah said he would die.
#Solution
Promote the #harm of lies and bribery and fraud to reduce the global effects it is having on our mental and emotional health and the #environments.
Ask yourself “Why should I take a #bribe?”
Prophets and Prophetess of God are appointed to stand up against #immorality and #tyranny, not to be hired to lie and take bribes from them.
When people have a #lawsuit and bring a gift to you. You must ask yourself, why should I take a bribe?
When people are acting as #tyrants towards others and bring a gift to you. You must ask yourself, why should I take a bribe?
When people wanting to #harm innocent individuals and bring a gift to you. You must ask yourself, why should I take a bribe?
