Reviewing my notes for tomorrows message (Lying Spirit part 2) I came across this illustration: A man spread lies about his pastor, was convicted, repented, and asked him how he could make it right. The pastor told him to get some feather pillows and rip them open, and place one feather on every porch in their community. It seemed strange, but he did what he was told. He went back to the preacher and said he was done. He said, no, you’re not. Go back and pick them all up now. “But I can’t. The wind has taken them who knows where!” The pastor said, “So it is with the words you have spoken about me.” When we slander someone’s reputation we do irreparable damage. And we’ll answer to God for it! Selah
