Lord, Who may live on your holy mountain?

Psalm 15:1-5

Lord, who may dwell in your sacred tent?  Who may live on your holy mountain?

The one whose walk is blamelesswho does what is righteouswho speaks the truth from their heart; whose tongue utters no slanderwho does no wrong to a neighborand casts no slur on otherswho despises a vile person but honors those who fear the Lordwho keeps an oath even when it hurts, and does not change their mind; who lends money to the poor without interestwho does not accept a bribe against the innocent.

Whoever does these things will never be shaken.

Why?

Anyone who does as described above will never be shaken and may dwell in God's sacred tent.

1) personal behavior: walk blameless 3) distinguishing good and evil.

2)communication with others:  does no wrong to neighbor 4) Speak the truth and not cast a slur on others 5) Keep oath 6) Help the poor with money without interest 7) No accept a bribe against the innocent.

How?

Social behavior is more important than personal perspective. So I should walk out the good behavior before others to witness the righteousness and love of the Lord.
