Making Your Yes Mean Yes

We live in a culture that sees little problem with bending the truth to their advantage. On the surface they may not be telling a down right lie but it is not the whole truth. It may be several shades of the truth or their version of the truth but seldom the whole truth. Their yes may means yes when swearing on a stack of Bibles in a courtroom, but it may not mean yes in other situations. This ungodly behavior is what Jesus was correcting.
