There are many testimonies among faithful and reliable believers, and I will share two with you today.
An accountant who doesn't cook the books
One female Christian was the chief accountant of her company, responsible for the major accounting matters. Because of her proficiency and serious work, the boss trusted her very much, letting her lead a small finance team.
One day she said to me, “I’m leaving as I won’t work there anymore.” I was surprised, as the boss thought highly of her, so why did she intend to leave? She said the company sometimes had to cook the books, but she didn't like to follow, either out of faith, conscience, or her duty as an accountant. Keeping refusing to do that, she wouldn't be able to stay there. As a result, she was thinking about quitting, asking me to help her find a suitable job.
But it wasn't long before she told me, “Thank God! I find another job as an accountant.“
It turned out that she had an interview with a large company. Having been working in finance for a long time with high professional quality, she quickly passed the business examination. That day, the boss of the new company interviewed her in person, asking, “Why did you leave your previous company?” She answered honestly,“I don't want to cook the books.” The boss was happy as he liked employees who were dedicated and loyal to their work. As a result, she was hired with honesty, which is the most basic quality and ethics of an accountant.
This time, she not only found a new position as a financial director, with a higher salary than before.
A boss who returned things that did not belong to him
One male believer was a self-employed boss in the communications equipment business. Guided by biblical truths in his business dealings such as justice and honesty, he made many business partners in the north and south, including Taiwanese businessmen.
Once he ordered a batch of fax machines from a Taiwanese Christian businessman. After receiving the machines, he found that there were 20 extra machines, each one with a wholesale price of 3,000 yuan. After finding the mistake, he immediately took the initiative to contact the owner of the goods by phone, clearly telling him that he had given 20 extra machines. It turned out that the salesman of that company had delivered the wrong goods. They then negotiated to return the 20 extra fax machines.
Developing deeper friendships and contact, the Taiwan businessman has also introduced him to some business partners on the mainland. Even after they stopped doing business for a few years and the Taiwan businessman returned to Taipei, they still remained in touch and talked about their faith.

信徒中忠厚可靠的见证很多，我们今天分享两则。
一、不做假账的会计姊妹
姊妹是公司的主管会计，负责单位的主要会计事项。由于业务熟练、工作认真，所以老板对她很信任，还带领一个小财务团队工作。
那一年有一天她和我说：弟兄我要走了，不在这公司干了。我很惊呀，因为老板对她很器重。她说，公司有的时候要做假账，但是她不想做假账，无论从信仰、从良心，还是从会计的职责。而不这样做，她在这里就没法待了，所以要辞职了。她还托我，有合适的工作岗位帮助找一个。
过了不久，她告诉我：感谢神！已经找到了一家公司，还是做会计工作。
原来她应试到一家规模比较大的公司。因为她做财务时间比较久，业务素质比较高，业务考试阶段很快的就通过了。那一天公司的老总亲自面试，就问了她一个问题：为什么从原来的公司不做了？她如实的回答了：不愿意做假账。这个公司的老板很高兴，喜欢对工作兢兢业业，忠诚的员工，不做假账，这是一个会计最基本的素质和操守。于是，她被录用了！
此次，她不仅找到了新的职位，而且是公司的财务负责人，工资待遇也比原来的高了许多。
二、退回多收的订货
这位弟兄是做通讯器材生意的个体老板。做生意当中也秉承圣经的真理：公平、诚实。所以他也结交了南北的一些生意上的伙伴，包括台商。
一次，他和一位信主的台商定了一批传真机。收到货物后，经过验收，发现多了20台。当时的传真机一台批发价格就3,000元钱.他发觉不对以后，马上主动的通过电话和那位货主联系，并且明确告诉：多发了20台，原来是那家公司的业务员把货发错了。之后他们协商，把多余的20台传真机给退了回去。
此后这两位基督徒商人，进一步增加了友谊，联系也更多了，同时，台商也介绍了在内地的一些生意伙伴给他。就是在双方都不做生意之后的若干年里，台商回到了台北，他们之间还保持主内信仰的联系，分享信仰。
