Proverbs 11:13 A gossip betrays a confidence, but a trustworthy person keeps a secret.
It is often communicated that certain things should be kept a secret. If I tell that person I am really going to hurt them, and what good would that do? According to the Bible. The opposite is true. The importance of keeping a secret is directly related to what you know in your heart to be the right thing to do, because God knows what the right thing to do, and He knows what is in our heart.
Psalm 44:21 would not God have discovered it, since he knows the secrets of the heart?
Proverbs 9:17 “Stolen water is sweet; food eaten in secret is delicious!”
Proverbs 17:23 The wicked accept bribes in secret to pervert the course of justice.
2 Corinthians 4:2
Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways;
we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the
contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to
everyone’s conscience in the sight of God.
Proverbs 28:13
Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy.
Matthew 10:26
“So do not be afraid of them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known.
Proverbs 24:12
If you say, “But we knew nothing about this,” does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who guards your life know it? Will he not repay everyone according to what they have done?
