Declare

  
The United States Declaration of Independence, copied by William Stone in 1823.

To "declare" means to say something formally, publicly and with emphasis; you might say what you think, but you only declare things you're sure of. So just as saying relates to sharing truth at various levels, "declaring" relates to sharing fundamental, unquestioned principles, often those that reveal the Lord and the salvation that lies in His embrace.

In Amos 4:12-13, 'to declare' signifies to flow in.
