About This Quote

The last thing that people want to hear about is bad things. If you are in any way connected to the church then they will begin to question your holiness. They will be very upset with you for not following all of the rules. Not only that, but most people would rather not hear bad things about their family members.

After all, most families are wonderful and no one wants to think of them as anything less. However, there are times when bad things need to be said. They need to be said so that people can learn from them and protect themselves from them in the future.

People have been sinning for centuries and have been making the same mistakes for many years. In these cases, people need to learn from what has happened so they don’t make the same mistakes again in the future.
