>  Truth
Advices:
  • We are constantly reminded that Truth is greater than the knowledge anyone of us has of it.
  • In meetings for business, work and worship together with patience and warm affection for each other, aware of the peaceable spirit of the light of Truth. A majority decision or even consensus is not the goal. In waiting patiently for divine guidance, Friends’ experience is that the way that leads to unity will open.
Queries:
  • Is the vocal ministry exercised under the direct leading of the
    Holy Spirit without prearrangement, and in the simplicity of truth?
  • How do we practice listening to the Truth which may be revealed by others?
  • Do we keep to a single standard of truth, so that we are free from the use of judicial and other oaths?
