I don't know that a lie ever is. Sometimes, though, not telling everything or being vague may make sense--but intentionally telling a falsehood is listed as a sin in the Bible.

Brett,
Lets say you give someone your WORD, just to find out their word means nothing?

Not keep your WORD because someone else broke their's..........
Quote:
Psa 15:1 - 5 (KJV)
1 LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?
2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.
3 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.
4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.
5 He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.
|
Do you think this could be interpreted: "gave his word to his own hurt, but kept it anyway"?
Since when does someone else not having integrity mean I should not uphold mine?
