Advices and Queries for October

35   Do you uphold those who are acting under concern, even if their way is not yours?  Can you lay aside your own wishes and prejudices while seeking with others to find God’s will for them?

36   Are you honest and truthful in all you say and do?  Do you maintain strict integrity in business transactions and in your dealings with individuals and organisations?  Do you use money and information entrusted to you with discretion and responsibility?  Taking oaths implies a double standard of truth; in choosing to affirm instead, be aware of the claim to integrity that you are making.
