The ninth of the Ten Commandments focuses on being truthful with, and about, others.

“Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.” (Mosiah 13:23 – Compare Exodus 20:16)

Questions:

-How does one’s dishonesty negatively affect those around him or her?

-What would lead someone to bear a false witness against another?

-How often do people say negative things about others that aren’t true (or that distort the truth)?
