Question We Address and Answer:

Key Lessons and Takeaways:

- How lying negatively impacts our relationship with God.
- Ways people try to justify lying in relationships.
Scriptures:
- “You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, 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.“ – John 8:44 (NIV)
- “Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to everyone’s conscience in the sight of God.“ – 2 Corinthians 4:2 (NIV)
- “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.“ – John 10:10 (NIV)
- “The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.“ – Proverbs 18:21 (NIV)
- “For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open.“ – Luke 8:17 (NIV)
Hold Yourself Accountable:
- Decide to be a child of God or a child of the father of lies.
Apply the Kingdom Principle:
- “Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to everyone’s conscience in the sight of God.“ – 2 Corinthians 4:2 (NIV)
Take Action Now:
- Examine your behavior, habits, patterns and excuses.
- Do personal studies in the Bible on lies, secrets and the power of the tongue.
