codernoni :
There is a reason 'thou shalt not lie' is not in the ten commandments.

Okija_juju: @ TOPIC: Its Okay for a christian to Lie, kill, steal, backbite and commit any type of sin to get out of a tight situation or achieve a goal..As long as he/she remembers to take a blood of Jesus Shower after commiting said sin!!

1st John 1:9
New International Version (©1984)

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

afam4eva: People just want the bible yo be re-written to justify the kind of despicable life that they live. If Christianity no do you, go someplace else. Abi na by force?

Callotti:

Starting with that your "ashawo". . . mother of Jesus.
. . .and your dane God whos 'blokos' cannot stand without using the AUSPY-SUSPY. . .HOLY GOASSSST BLOKOS!

Did you 'stoopid' God not lie to you, by putting the 'forbidden' fruit in your lame azzzze?

No wonder you can't find peace on or off the cyber airways.

Enjoy your curse!

Hail da Harlloti!

Whobedatte: Not all lies is sin. It means U are as wise as the dove as the bible portrayed. I once needed few hours to write a part time exam in my place of work, i know my production manager won't allow me since i was knew in the company, and learnt they dont allow pple run programmes there. I told him my father who died many years back have just been hit by a molue bus. Immediately he signed my gate pass, and went 4 the exam. She dat one na lie

Sagytarius:
I'm confused here, OP. Well I'll blame myself because it's been long enough since I last read the bible (May God forgive me). Buh, did u actually mean that Sarah was Abrahams blood sister? And they straffed to bear Isaac? Isnt that abomination? or am I missing something here?

Omo Alata: When my son was younger (he's now 3), I often lied to him that there was a monster outside that would get him if he went outside (he always wanted to play outside) so am I now condemned to hell?

I didn't do it in a malicious way, just to protect him from kidnappers.

frosbel: John 8:44
New International Version (NIV)
You belong to your father, the devil, .. not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

Proverbs 29:5
New American Standard Bible (©1995)
A man who flatters his neighbor Is spreading a net for his steps.

dplus:

Imagine your boss telling you to tell all his visitors he is not around while he is the office ? Will you go ahead to tell the truth ?

So critically at some point in life u have to lie to cover up the truth but it should not be an habit or ways of life.

The 100% truth is that everybody lie so why? i think this will lead to the answer to your post

Omo Alata:

false witness - a person who deliberately gives false testimony
perjurer
liar, prevaricator - a person who has lied or who lies repeatedly

inurmind: It funny how christians try to justify themselves in sin.
You are really just encouraging pple to mock and criticise u the more.

Was it ever recorded in the bible that Jesus whom u are meant to emulate lied?
And a lie is a lie whether small or big one.
I thought u should always represent truth.

And besides, can't the holy spirit get u out of the situation without being deceptive which is clearly stated many times in the bible as being of the devil?
Wouldn't that be defined as wisdom not cowardice?
Or is he just for speaking in tongues?

ceejay80s: @ OP, i know u are a muslim, thats why u choose to intimidate christians, muslims no dey lie?

stepo707:



Abraham indeed married his niece Sarai.Offcourse when it comes to a situation where you have to save your life,you are permitted to lie.

Callotti: Heck yeah! For entertainment and for self-preservation. . .or to save others or SELF from harm or discomfort.

When you are dealing with Nigerian 'Busy Bodies' especially on the cyber airways of course!

Mu che che che che che che

Especially to those 'Mgbekes' and 'Mgbafors' looking to compete for h-internet blokoses and totos!

Mu he he he he he

People who like to move around like 'malus'. . . without brains of their own. . .JUST FOR THE FUN OF IT!


Ah-Ha!
Very entertaining. . .I tellya!

BOTTOM LINE. . .BE HONEST TO ONLY THOSE THAT ARE WORTH IT. . . .!

Even the so-called GOD deceived Esau in the so-called bible by conniving with Jacob to steal his birth-right.
Or should we mention the concept of the original sin. . .aka the 'forbidden fruit' in the so-called 'beautiful garden of Eden'?

Holyrule:
God does not lie and has never lied. Many of us confuse the scripture because we only choose to understand it carnally, but when you eat of the fruit that day you shall die, the death there signifies spiritual death ok. Stop deceiving yourself by quoting the Bible literally.
