Truthfulness, the Result of Grace – Charles Spurgeon

THERE are persons who cannot brook to speak the truth. To them two must always be twenty; to their eyesight the faults of any neighbor are crimes, and the virtues of any, except their especial favorites, are always tinged with vice; naturally they have a malicious judgment towards others, they are envious of anything that is honorable in their fellow man. Now, what say you, sir? Are you willing to be made whole, and from this hour to speak nothing but the truth towards God and towards man? I am afraid many a tongue that is glib now would have little to say if it said nothing but truth, and many a man might and would, if he were honest enough to say it, refuse the blessing of being made perfectly truthful.
