How are we to deal with a person who falsely accuses us of something we did not do?

Jealousy is a negative and damaging emotion. It’s the feeling we have when something we believe is ours is given to someone else.

With reference to the armour worn by soldiers in Jesus' time His followers were encouraged to put on a "breastplate of righteousness" as part of what would protect them spiritually each day.

Jesus always spoke the truth. He encouraged people to follow Him because He is the way, the truth, and the life.

Keeping a record of wrongs often leads to the winding path of relapse and active addiction.

The 12-Step Road often seems a long and winding one to us and some of us think we can reach our destination by taking shortcuts that are more agreeable.
