A cross reference is also provided at the back of the book, making it easy to cross reference the Q with the parallel scriptures in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. This

The Ninth Commandment in the Bible states, “thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour” (Exodus 20:16). This Commandment is crucial to everyone who believes in God and studies the Bible. It applies to all forms of lying. If it is impossible for God to lie, why does everyone do it?
