In family life, honesty is called for in many matters: The head of the house ought to be truthful with his wife about his income and financial matters; the wife should be honest with him about how she spends family funds; both need to be persons of integrity, including limiting their sex interests to each other; the children do well to be truthful and obedient as respects their associations and forms of entertainment, consistent with their parents ’ stated wishes. ​ — Ephesians 5: 33; 6: 1 - 3.
जितना कुछ कहा गया है, उस से यह स्पष्ट होना चाहिए कि एक असली मसीही को “अधर्म त्याग ” देना चाहिए — यानी वे दुष्ट कर्म और बुरे फल जो बेईमानी, झूठ, धोखेबाज़ी, कपट, और नैतिक भ्रष्टाचार के साथ जाते हैं । — २ तीमुथियुस २: १९; रोमियों २: २१ - २४.
