Is It Ever OK To Lie?


EnjoyLife

Recommended Posts

From a strictly Christian perspective is it ever ok to lie?

Not all lies are the same. Telling Grandma that you loved the terrible fruitcake she sent you is not the same as telling someone their spouse is having an affair. One is told out of kindness...while the other is told to be destructive.

On the other hand...telling a lie (even a seemingly harmless lie) could theoretically be an attempt to circumvent Gods will by changing the outcome of some situation even if that was not the intention.

Does any of that make sense?

It is never ok to lie.....

 

 

But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”
