If You Have To Do With One Who Is Unquestionably A Slanderer, Do Not Excuse Him By Calling Him Frank And Free-spoken; Do Not Call One Who Is Notoriously Vain, Liberal And Elegant; Do Not Call Dangerous Levities Mere Simplicity; Do Not Screen Disobedience Under The Name Of Zeal; Or Arrogance, Of Frankness; Or Evil Intimacy, Of Friendship. No, My Friends, We Must Never, In Our Wish To Shun Slander, Foster Or Flatter Vice In Others: But We Must Call Evil Evil, And Sin Sin, And So Doing We Shall Serve God's Glory.

If You Have To Do With One Who Is Unquestionably A Slanderer, Do Not Excuse Him By Calling Him Frank And Free-spoken; Do Not Call One Who Is Notoriously Vain, Liberal And Elegant; Do Not Call Dangerous Levities Mere Simplicity; Do Not Screen Disobedience Under The Name Of Zeal; Or Arrogance, Of Frankness; Or Evil Intimacy, Of Friendship. No, My Friends, We Must Never, In Our Wish To Shun Slander, Foster Or Flatter Vice In Others: But We Must Call Evil Evil, And Sin Sin, And So Doing We Shall Serve God's Glory.
