God's Whistleblower

The weapons of the scoundrel are destructive;
he hatches plots to destroy the poor with lies,
even when the plea of the needy is just.
Isaiah 32:7 (BSB)

A wicked person listens to deceitful lips;
a liar pays attention to a destructive tongue.

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or empty pride,
but in humility consider others more important than yourselves.

but also to the interests of others.
Philippians 2:3-4 (BSB)
Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time.
After that, have nothing to do with them.
You may be sure that such people are warped and sinful;
they are self-condemned.
Titus 3:10-11 (NIV)

‘Cursed is he who strikes down his neighbor in secret.’
And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’

evil behavior and perverse speech.
