Jesus teaches on oaths

Jesus Teaches on Oaths: Say What You Mean and Mean What You Say

In Matthew 5:33–37, Jesus calls us away from complicated oaths and toward clear, honest speech. His teaching cuts through the noise of half-truths and hidden motives. In 2025, when words are cheap and trust is fragile, Jesus still calls His followers to live with integrity and speak truth from the heart.
