David’s Code of Ethics

Posted on September 17, 2018 by America's Keswick in Freedom Fighters

Recently I was asked if America’s Keswick had a code of ethics for our staff. Great question, and the answer to that question is, “Yes, we do.”

As I was reading through the Psalms again last month, I read again King David’s Code of Conduct from Psalm 101. If you have never read the passage, it is worth digging into.

David’s Code of Conduct

1. I will be careful to live a blameless life. Vs. 2a
2. I will lead a life of integrity in my own home. Vs. 2b
3. I will refuse to look at anything vile and vulgar. Vs. 3a
4. I hate all who deal crookedly; I will have nothing to do with them.
   3b
5. I will reject perverse ideas and stay away from every evil. Vs.4
6. I will not tolerate people who slander their neighbors. Vs. 5a
7. I will not endure conceit and pride. Vs. 5b
8. I will search for faithful people to be my companions. Vs. 6a
9. I will not allow deceivers to serve in my house, and liars will not stay in my presence. Vs. 7
10. My daily task will be to ferret out the wicked and free the city of the Lord from their grip. Vs. 8

This doesn’t really need any commentary. I think the passage is very clear about what we need to do. I have printed this out again and will be posted in on the wall at my home and office desks. Wow.

Check it out for yourself.

Overflowing and abounding in hope,
