Proverbs 28:13
Whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.
Numbers 32:23
But if you do not do so, behold, you have sinned against the Lord, and be sure that your sin will find you out.

It is a comfort that the God of all is on the side of what and who is right. He loves truth. His nature IS truth, and God hates sin. He sees it, and in the life of His children, He won't tolerate it forever. It is only a matter of time before our sin finds us out, or we find ourselves not prospering because of sin.
Thankfully there is GREAT news! What is right and true is knowable. God wants us to know how to live lives pleasing to Him. It is all in the Bible; it is His handbook to us. He has called men to be pastors who explain the Scriptures to us and do deeper study to communicate truth to us, but we are responsible to know that what they are saying is accurate. We should read along in church and read on our own also.
