Have you ever been accused of anything by anybody? How about standing for trial?
Depending on the nature of the crime one or all of the following will likely be there!
1.The accuser
2.The accused
3.Witness/witnesses
4.Lawyer
5.Prosecutor
6.The jury
7.Family members/friends/supporters
As you stand on trial,remember that your acquittal or being found guilty will depend to a large extend on the following:
1.Your attitude-arrogance/humility
2.Your reaction
3.The way you talk/answer questions
4.Facts and not hear say
5.Respect for the law and other people’s views/opinions
6.Your dress code
7.Your physical demeanor
8.Your interruptions/argument
Any or all of the above will kind of give those with powers to decide your case,a window to condemn or set you free!
Remember the story of the one man who was given one talent as found in Mathew chapter 25? His attitude and the way he answered his master sealed his fate!
So,the next time you find yourself called to stand before any trial,pay attention to the 8 points mentioned above! Will you?
Just a thought!
