Why Not Tell The Truth? (Cont'd) Thursday 4th & Friday 5th

Why do people lie?

Acts 20:30 says some will distort the truth in order to draw a following.

To become popular. In acts 5, Ananias brought part of the money to the Apostles, but claimed it was the full amount.

To make selves look good.

God is truth, so lying is in opposition to God. Truth always seeks what is right and good. Lying always seeks to cover up the truth. Proverbs 6:16-17 six things the Lord HATES - no seven....lies, haughty eyes, a lying tongue!

I would say women lie whenever they attempt to deceive God, others and their own self!

Truth stands the test of time; lies are soon exposed!
