I bless each person that reads this article.
What consequences does lying bring? Nothing good, mostly in the persons that convert lying into a life style.
1. They offend God. According to the book of Proverbs, out of the six things that God hates, is lying.
Let’s look at Proverbs 6:16-17. “There are six things the Lord hates: Seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood.”
2. Also just and integrate persons, hate it . Also the book of Proverbs tells us: “The just hates the word of lying”.
3. The ones that practice it, they delight in saying it and they become bad people. Psalm 52:3: “You love evil rather than good, falsehood rather than speaking the truth.”
4. A liar is not believed anymore. I consider that within a negative image that someone might have, one of them is being singled out as a liar.
Do you know that Satan is called: The father of lies? That’s what the Apostle Paul says in John 8:44 “ because he is a liar, and father of lies”.
