PIPES RULE! Its the Real Thing!
Garden and Table tools

If we don't like or care for a person or something, just say nothing, for want of having anything truthfully positive to say. To flatter and "deceive" the person into false security or acceptance is downright dishonesty! There is nothing truthful about it. If people are to "worship God in Spirit and in Truth", then surely, this first principle must be adhered to?  Treat our fellow "family"members with honesty and truth, then pray and praise your Creator with all your heart and soul and strength.   How does the world's standards seem different from the believers' standards if we don't even acknowledge this?  


A spade is not a fork, and is for the garden, not the table. There are too many spades pretending to be designer, silver forks. ...Guess who put them there!?


Wake up!...Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme!

My understanding of keeping silent is when you have nothing nice to say to the person, then don't say it; and speaking the truth in love means just that, not vindictive, but may still hurt.

I think the book of Proverbs says a wise man accepts rebukes and the apostle Paul also teaches that. I'm all for candour, but easier said than done cos people get easily offended. Flattering is wrong but its a "Chinese" thing lah...

Another way of looking at it..... by not saying anything, it's saying a lot of things! As in silence means consent....So when you hear ppl raving about themselves and you don't utter anything, they'll go on believing...... "oh yeah! it's true!"....thus giving birth to the phrase often used..... "living in fools' paradise".....maybe that's what keeps ppl going...."thinking that they're the best beings around!" ;p...
