Do Not Be United In Error


It is better to be divided by truth than to be united by error.  It is better to speak the truth that hurts and then heals, than falsehoods that comforts and then kills.  It is not love and it is not friendship if we fail to declare the whole counsel of God.  It is better to be hated for telling the truth than to be loved for telling a lie. . . .  It is better to stand alone with the truth, than to be wrong with a multitude.


Author unknown, cited in “Think on These Things” teaching letter, May 2006 (a ministry of Southern View Chapel, Springfield, IL.)
