RADIO PROGRAM NO. 271 - A Student Asks About Honesty

Questioner: There seems to be an integrity gap in the world today. Often the operator who uses gimmicks appears to get ahead.

Speaker: We certainly see evidences of people's preoccupation with gimmicks, and yet this integrity gap isn't anything new. For example, we learn from the Bible of the shortcomings of such people as Jacob, who chiseled his brother out of his birthright and who later had a terrific struggle with himself to regain his integrity.

Questioner: What kind of integrity are we actually talking about?
