All imperfect humans have their integrity tested as shown by examples in the Holy Scriptures of Job, Abraham etc And all perfect humans then have to prove their obedience as shown by Adam, Eve, and Yeshua. This will be taking place on a grand scale on all humans on the planet when the final test of obedience is carried out when satan the tempter is released from the abyss after the 1000-year reign of Yeshua. So, to get to paradise and life everlasting the human family now has to pass the two tests set before us by the Creator Yehovah. Will you be in the finals or will you perish when Revelation 19 is fulfilled.

We live in a society that has largely abandoned moral standards and Christian principles. Unkept campaign promises, false advertising, exaggerated tax exemptions, employee theft—compromise has become a way of life. Such moral concession has even invaded the church. Faced with an opportunity to proclaim Christ to unbelievers, we feel intimidated and keep silent. Or we water down God's Word on ethical issues at work or in our community to avoid rejection. Too often we prefer hypocrisy to integrity. But God longs for His people to be different—to maintain a commitment to His standards, no matter what the cost. Is consistent obedience to God—integrity—attainable in this world of sin and self? By the grace and power of God, yes! One of the nation's most respected pastors points the way to persevering character in Christ. Drawing from scriptural examples of godly men who modeled integrity during severe testing, MacArthur makes a compelling case for the impact a man or woman of integrity can have in our world. A helpful study guide for individuals or groups is included.

Tried & Tested is A Book filled with many biblical characters that were tested by very un-usual situations during their time. Isnt it ironic that today, we are living in uncertain times too and we are being tested & tried just as they were. From the biblical stories we outline, some were successful, and others failed. The ones that passed the test were given great rewards. 'Remember, short cuts make long delays.' The author points out a few life lessons on being tested. He also shows us the reasons why others passed, and others failed the test. These lessons have great rewards for those that pass them. Whenever God has tested us, we always emerge as pure gold when we stand firm to the end. One of the metaphors that the Bible says about life is that it is just a test. The Lord tests people's character, faith, obedience, love, generosity, endurance, integrity, and loyalty. Character is both developed and revealed by testing.

Today it is often considered rude to speak of right and wrong. In such a culture of relativism, we desperately need to be reminded of the biblical value of integrity. In this ten-session LifeGuide® Bible Study invite us to find contentment in who are and how we follow God as we grow to be people of real integrity.

Obedience of faith is the master key to provoking the manifestation of the wonders in the Word John 2:5-11 5 His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it. 6 And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece. 7 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. 8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it. 9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, 10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. 11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.Until you obey God with faith you may not see the wonder of God and his manifestation. John 9:1-8 Obedience of Faith will always commit God's integrity to performWhen we do what the Word commands, believing, we have committed God's integrity to confirm His Word.Those who obey God in faith don't beg for miracle, the disciple obey and God was working miracle as they Obey. Mark 16:20 And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.In the kingdom of God, obedience speaks louder than voice -Deut 28:1-2And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.James 1:22-25 hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. We may not have prayed for some great happenings in our lives, but we definitely must have 'obeyed' our way into themObedience commands greater results than all other spiritual forces put together 1 Sam 15:22And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams. Obedience of faith will open impossible doors to believers - Passing the obedience test is what qualifies a believer for enthronement in the kingdom - Heb 11:17-19 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, 18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: 19 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.Our obedience or disobedience to any commandment of scripture is absolutely a matter of our choice Deut 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: Obedience of faith is the mystery behind the rise of all giants listed in scriptures, Obedience may be costly, but the end result is pricelessReceiving, believing and obeying the instructions of the Word is what makes it work. but obedience that must work be tested and proven that is what we be discuss in this book.

This book discusses outcomes of a study by the National Institute of Mental Health, Czech Republic, examining moral integrity in the post-communist Czech-speaking environment. Chapters map the history of the Euro-Atlantic ethical disciplines from moral philosophy and psychology to evolutionary neuroscience and socio-biology. The authors emphasize the biological and social conditionality of ethics and call for greater differentiation of both research and applied psychological standards in today’s globalised world. Using a non-European ethical system – Theravada Buddhism – as a case study, the authors explore the differences in English and Czech interpretations of the religion. They analyse cognitive styles and language as central variables in formatting and interpreting moral values, with important consequences for cultural transferability of psychological instruments. This book will appeal to academics and other specialists in psychology, psychiatry, sociology and related fields, as well as to readers interested in the psychology of ethics.

For Christians, our ethics should reflect the tenants of right and wrong put forth in the Bible. The Ten Commandments are the example of God giving His people a code of ethics to live by. As you read through them, consider how these laws would apply to ethical living today. During my study of the Holy Bible, I learned to understand God’s love for His people. God did not abort His plan when Adam sinned. He went on to choose Prophets and even talked like humans to comprehend Him. Remember, God is not like us. He has a Divine prerogative to do His own will as the Holy Deity. Our Creator, who is Self Existent does not need any of us at all. God had grand plans for the human race, kept His promise to save us by sacrificing His Son to atone for our sins. It is God’s integrity that keeps us all on this earth. We must acknowledge God’s faithfulness of His love. This devotional book intends to teach us how to learn God’s truth and use them towards building our integrity.
