Now imagine to the tale bearing spirit on this forum that used to post many tales as his thread titles. Is that what we should consider to be a faithful spirit ?
Look at the distinction, Jesus Christ we know as the true and faithful witness, and we know satan the false witness utters lies ( and is th father and expert at lies)...
Revelation 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
Proverbs 11:13 A talebearer revealeth secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.
Proverbs 14:5 A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies.
Now we follow the path God shows us, to the worshipers in truth ( with no lies or lying spirit) then we know the Spirit of truth has to be in us.
The Spirit is truth.
There is a Spirit of truth, and a spirit of error..
John 4:23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
John 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
John 14:17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
1 John 5:6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
1 John 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
Then God prepares thew way for us, how the faithful city lost judgement and righteousness.
Then God restores judgement, then the city becomes the city of righteousness, the faithful city.
God further explains this is Him betrothing us to Him in faithfulness, in judgement, and in righteousness...
Isaiah 1:21 How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.
Isaiah 1:26 And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.
Isaiah 11:5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
Hosea 2:19 And I will betroth thee unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies.
20 I will even betroth thee unto me in faithfulness: and thou shalt know the Lord.
Jesus then comes to earth to reveal how to be unjust in the least is to not be faithful at all, which is the true riches, to purify the heart of man by faith, calling on the Lord out of that purified pure heart of faith, opening our eyes to be sanctified by faith that is in Christ Jesus our Lord, for obedience to the faith and the obedience of faith..
Luke 16:10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
Luke 16:11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
Acts 15:8 And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us;
9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
2 Timothy 2:22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
Acts 26:18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
Romans 1:5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:
Romans 16:26 But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:
So the just live by faith ( those in faith justified by Christ) and they do not draw back to faithlessness, and faith establishes the law of faith...
Romans 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
Hebrews 10:38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
Romans 3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Romans 3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
Walking in the faithful steps of Abraham, and by faith Abraham offered up Isaac, justified by works and we see how his faith wrought with his works to make faith perfected as it must be..
Romans 4:12 And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised.
Hebrews 11:17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,
James 2:21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?
We saw above how God opens the eyes to sanctify us by faith that is in Him, and then faith comes by hearing the word of God,..
Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
We stand by faith and fall by not fearing God, and we are damned by not having faith and then in sin.
Faith works by love ( important to know)
Love works no ill to your neighbour, love is the fulfilling of the law ( the law of faith which is established)
To come to the unity of the faith to a perfect man, the measure of the stature of Christ in His knowledge ( that knowledge is here)...
Romans 11:20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
Romans 14:23 And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
Galatians 5:6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
Romans 13:10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
Ephesians 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
Not all have faith, they remain wicked, but the Lord is faithful, and being faithful He keeps His faithful from evil.
Romans 7 shows an example of not being kept from evil, the wicked doers choose this as their faith...
2 Thessalonians 2:2 And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith.
3 But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.
4 And we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command you.
Romans 7:18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
The Holy Apostles ( in more than name in also deed) do be kept from evil by the faithful Lord, because they do fight the good fight and do keep the faith.
The faith of Jesus is to keep the commandments of God. ( the unstable cannot keep the faith by thinking God does not keep anyone from evil ?
2 Timothy 4:7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
Revelation 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

No-Anawer-Adam, who is the only one who has tricked himself into believing he is “sinless”, keeps trying to convince others that it is God who has made him (No-Answer-Adam) sinless.
But Adam’s posts and threads keep proving that Adam is still a sinner.
It’s very hard to convince people that God has made you “sinless and perfect” when you keep on sinning.
According to 1 John 1:10, one of Adam’s favorite sins is making God a liar.
Holman Christian Standard Bible
1 John 1:10 If we say, "We don't have any sin," we make Him (God) a liar, and His word is not in us.
